O.K. maybe it's a bit 'off topic' and I'm not convinced that it is even genuine. How come someone just happened to be filming when it happened?
Has anyone else come across these pics?

There I was just flying along, enjoying the flight...

Hey, why am I looking up?

Whoa here. What the hell? ?Controls aren't working.

Time for a mirror check. ?Hey, where's the rest of my F-15?
[img]cid:774D6EB9A8EA4C3B94E9E28D44992C0F(at)DavidPC[/img]
Uh oh, it's over there. ?I think I've got a definite 'Aw, sh*t' going on here.

OK, enough is enough! ?I'm outta' here! But first, the canopy has to go...

OK, now it's my turn. I'm gonna be gone - soon as I find that frickin' lower handle.

Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about. This 'incident' caused the USAF to ground its fleet of F-15's.
What caused the mid air break up? The main "longeron" (stringer) behind the cockpit failed due to corrosion.

I have seen this one before. It is true that an F-15 broke apart in flight, but I am not convinced that this sequence is real.

It's a real event but the pictures are from an animated reconstruction:

Hi Dave:
Yes, I have seen these pictures from a few years back.
As for "How come someone just happened to be filming when it happened?" The plane and pilot were flying formation. I ALWAYS carry a camera when I fly formation. What is a bit unusual is the camera angle of the pictures. The picture is from the top down with the plane ACUTE. This is NOT an accepted position. He should have been ON THE LINE / On Station. MAYBE the pictures were taken to SHOW the NUGGET that he is acute.
Also at one point picture 3 the camera ship is in a position of being over head as if the other ship was doing a Cross Under. But again he is way acute. I would have kicked him OUT.
Also it looks like he lost his canopy in picture #6, in #7 there are either particles of the canopy or vapor. Same in Pic #8, in #9 particles of canopy and pic #10 - NO CANOPY.
Of course the pictures could be out of sync.
What I see missing is the trail of wires, cables and debris from the canopy section.
