It could be luck or good shooting, but either way it’s embarrassing for Libyan President Moammar Gadhafi. Rebels near the city of Ras Lanuf shot down a Libyan Air Force fighter plane using a anti-aircraft gun with only one barrel operational. Making matters worse for Gadhafi, it was the man behind the gun’s first day:
The small victory comes as rebel forces begin marching toward the capital city of Tripoli. Libyan helicopter gunships fired on a rebel force advancing west toward the capital along the Mediterranean coastline Sunday and forces loyal to leader Moammar Gadhafi fought intense ground battles with the rival fighters.

The "Golden BB" strike again. Long standing AAA practice is to throw a wall of shells in the air, one is bound to be in the right place to hit SOMETHING.

Or it could be just BS properganda reported by the media in an attempt to gain more sympathy for the rebel forces?
Lets remember Palestines video news events which was proven to be staged.
Good luck to them if they did shoot it down but I remain some what sceptical.
Besides its libya, who cares, give them all ak's and let them do a decent job on population control, bloody place has been a haven for despots, terrorists, assholes and deposed leaders for years.
