Should have been in a Mercedes.

I like the video that can be seen at the side menu of this video where the Swiss pilots are flying through the mountains. The music is awful, but is video is awsome.

The narrator stated that the concrete "did its job" and, I'm sure it did. She also stated that the concrete was designed to "move and absorb energy".
They presented the sensational aspect of the video, ie: a fighter jet disintegrating.
I'd have loved to see the condition of the concrete afterwards.
Then, I'd know whether to use a second jet or three......
