It's a CG fake.

Len. I swallowed it hook line a sinker too until I was informed by another
acrobatic pilot (who is one of the best I have ever known) that it is a fake.
Two points: one, if the wing parted as it shows in the film, where are the
control cables? The brake is too clean. Two, there is no reason for the picture
to go out of focus when the plane stays at a consistent distance from the lens.
If you will notice the focus blurs just before the landing and just before it
turns away from the viewer at the end when the pilot raises the canopy. Could
these be the change points from real to model and back to real? I agree though,
if it is fake, it is a wicked good one. Cheers, JL
