No sale.
Kinda like, “The Front Fell Off”.
It is a model plane.
It was covered here at the time.
Yes, I know SNOPES is liberal, but they covered it too.
World’s best pilot. Talk about keeping your head under pressure.
a variant of “Rather Rules”: “Fake, but funny”
Hoax from years ago.

You've heard of left wing pilots. Now you've seen one.
That couldn’t be more fake. Not even a good fake.
Kind of interesting that it was conveniently out of focus to help mask over the fact that it’s a toy plane.
Dude, you've been had.
It’s a hoax. Two YouTube videos explain it. The first in English but limited in explaining how it was done. The second is longer and goes into detail but it’s in French with subtitles.
the movement of the plane appeared herky jerky enough to be a model plane
that is the first impression I had as a matter of fact.
tiny objects would move as the “plane” did even before losing the wing..a full sized plane would not. its a matter of scale
This thing has been floating around for a while. It’s a model and designed to fly without the wing. And then a bit of video photoshop and you have a pilot climbing out.
When I first saw it I thought it looked like a model until the guy climbed out. Then I saw some video where the author came clean on how he did it and I realized why it looked like a model. ;-)
Fake. Here’s how it was purportedly done (2008): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5uVaG9k6kw
Real plane loses wing during a negative-G maneuver, but is equipped with a full-plane parachute:

Obama’s subsidizing planes now?.
