Well, I didn't find anything about these incidents in any Hebrew site, which makes me think that with all due respect to the sites that mentioned it, those incidents never happened.

None of these Mig 29 kills are documented in my copy of the Osprey book Israeli F15 Eagle Units in Combat by Shlomo Aloni.

Why?
The Israeli Air Force lost many planes on that day, the only question is wether to fighters or to ground defenses.
And pilots that get shot down are often not really able to judge who shot them down, SAMs or fighters.
It doesn't matter anyway, does it.
Or is this a case of "no stupid Arab is able to shoot down an israeli pilot"?

Being shot down by "brainless" ground defenses is somehow preferable than being shot down by a individual enemy pilot?

You are putting words in my mouth.

I reject the historical accuracy of the battle of el Mansourah for the same reason I reject the historical accuracy of the claim of 4 downed Mig 29: All of these events are denied by the IDF.

Regarding the battle of el Mansourah, you must ask yourself the following: why would the IDF acknowledge heavy aircraft loses on the early days of the war, but the deny this event (if it really happened)?

Another problem with the battle of el Mansourah, no Israeli history of YKW makes mention of it. Israeli historians have not pulled any punches when describing the mistakes and failures of the IDF in that war, so why would they cover-up el Mansourah?

Regarding the 14.02.1991 helicopter kill by F-15E, you will find that some sources say it was a Hughes 500, others that it was an Mi-24 "Hind". In the book "F-15E Strike Eagle units in combat 1990-2005" by Steve Davies, Osprey Combat Aircraft series no#59, ISBN 1-84176-909-6, at page 29, it is stated that it was an Mi-24, hit by a GBU-10.

On 14 September 2001, an IDF/AF Boeing 707, equipped for SIGINT-reconnaissance, was on a mission along the Lebanese and Syrian coast, collecting Syrian defense informations, monitoring foremost telecommunications and radar tags in the Tarabulus (Tripolis) and Hamidiyali areas. The plane was underway at 520 knots and 30.000ft, and escorted by two F-15Cs, at least one of which carried the newest Python Mk.IV air-to-air missiles.

The IDF/AF flew similar missions in the area at least twice a week since quite some times, and – as usually – the SyAAF scrambled two interceptors to shadow the “ferret”: the Syrians would always monitor the operations of Israeli reconnaissance aircraft, sending either MiG-23s from Abu ad-Duhor AB, or – less often – MiG-29s from Tsaykal, forward deployed at al-Ladhiqiyah, would get the honor to fly such missions over the Mediterranean Sea. So far, the Syrians have always taken care to stay at least some 20 kilometers away from Israeli planes, and never showed any interest in attacking the Israelis.

But, on this day, at 0914hrs, the two MiG-29s sent to shadow the Boeing 707 suddenly turned towards the Israeli aircraft and increased their speed. For the pilots of the two Israeli F-15s in escort this was not only surprising, but also an obviously aggressive maneuver. Due to the short range, there was no time to ask questions: the MiGs turned towards the Israeli planes in aggressive manner, and could open fire any moment.

The leader of the F-15-pair ordered the Boeing to instantly distance from the area and engage ECM systems, and then called his ground control for help and reinforcements (as a result of this call, six more F-15s and six F-16s were scrambled, along a single Boeing 707 tanker). Moment later, he warned the Syrian MiG-29 pilots on the international distress frequency to change their course. As the MiGs failed to response, the Eagles moved into attack.

One of the F-15s attacked the lead Syrian MiG-29 from above, closing directly out of the rising sun, and launching a single Python Mk.IV from an off-boresight angle of 40 degrees. The missile guided properly and hit the MiG above the left wing, immediately setting it afire. The other MiG-29 banked hard right, apparently heading back to Syria, but it was too late, as the second F-15 was already too close: the pilot launched a single AIM-9M Sidewinder from a range of only 500 meters. The missile slammed into the target, crashing it into the sea.

Both Syrian pilots, Maj. Arshad Midhat Mubarak, and Capt. Ahmad al-Khatab, ejected safely and were recovered by Syrian ships. The names of the involved Israeli F-15-pilots remain unknown.

In Gulf Air War Debrief the pilot who lased the target said it was a Hughes 500.

YMMV, but the AF Magazine article with Capt. Bennett states he ID'd it as a Mi-24 through the LANTIRN imagery. (linky)

The same jet (89-0487) that Bennett flew in Iraq is apparently also the one that shot down a MQ-9 Reaper over Afghanistan with a Sidewinder.
