Simply amazing that such a heavily damaged aircraft could not only make it back, but land too!  Phenomenal story!

Thank you. I am happy you like this image. It is based on a real story.
I have many other tribute aviation-art scenes which also depict aircraft in even MORE damaged
conditions, and they all flew back to base and the pilots survived.
