The "ultralight footage" was most likely from the original testing.

Story goes they removed wires down to the point that a hard pull
could fold the wing.

Then went up and tried it.


I'll tell ya folks, a person has to have thoughts before a mission
like that.

Experimantal Test Pilot, huh?

Didn't zoom once test out the BRS in a UL with a 12G pullout? Seems I read
that somewhere.....

Wrong, it was an older phantom, and it was not staged.
The 150 was though,,,,,
