    The Germans methodology of counting “kills” varied some from the more strict American version. Thus the top American aces racked up scores of less than 50 kills in contrast to the grossly exaggerated numbers of the Luftwaffe.

Esp. with HJM, he really nailed 17 tommies at one day. All confirmed :D You would suck everybodies dick if one yank could achive half of what this guy did. :)

    Great video! I would highly encourage you to consider adding shoulder straps to the 140. It’s a safety issue that I feel is mandatory. Too many people have been hurt or lost from lack of shoulder restraints, especially with the type of accident you had.

    There has been a lot of talk of who won the Battle of the Coral Sea, but the truth is neither side could claim victory. However, both naval fleets battered each other so badly that both withdrew from the theatre, so there was no clear winner. However, the American manufacturing might shone through in the following Battle of Midway. We Aussies like to think of ourselves as having a major role in the Coral Sea conflict, but it was a very minor role, apart from one incredibly significant thing. Before the Battle of the Coral Sea happened, there was a lot of small boat traffic between the Australian and American fleets. Apparently it was somewhat lopsided traffic though because while the Americans had movies and icecream, the Aussies trumped all of that because............. they had BEER!

    When the U.S. Army Air Corp put out the original spec to Allison, they said that G.M. was going to build the turbo charger. That turbo wouldn't fit in a P-40 or P-51 and thus it would run out of breath at 12 to 15 thousand feet. It would however fit into the twin boom P-38 which could hold it's own at altitude.

    The Russians forced 11 Million Germans out of their homes. They forced them into western occupied territory where this people had no homes. Food was rationed. And you have Russians today which claim that they liberated East Europe. While all of eat Europe had to suffer under Russian occupation. Make no mistake. The Russian society is Germany's and Eastern Europe enemy till they accept real history and their crimes.

      @@The_Flying_Mechanic Ummm have you heard of the Battle of Okinawa hahaha? That was a massive humanitarian event. And the US DID rebuild Japan after WWII... That's why it is the world's third largest economy now. Also, Britain only survived the "brunt of the German assault" because of the US' Lend-Lease program. My point stands, correctly, that the Berlin Airlift was primarily a US undertaking. The supplies were primarily American and the delivery was done primarily by Americans.

      Reactive Safety is dependent on accidents to learn from them. Modern aviation benefits from Proactive and even Predictive Safety to identify current and anticipate future problems. This is the basis for the Safety Management Systems (SMSs) in the airlines and other industries.

    If you were not part of the watching audience on Earth that day, it will be hard for you to imagine the doubt and hope that we all felt as Armstrong maneuvered the lander over a forbidding landscape to find a safe landing point. Houston called out the diminishing seconds of fuel left, and we dared not breathe until finally, at the last second, the contact light came on. I honestly believe that Neil Armstrong was the only person alive who could have persevered through those last moments of doubt, and made the landing. Unforgettable.

    And what Neil actually said, when he took that historic first step on the moon, was, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for Mankind." Unfortunately, the occasional radio breakup you hear in all the old NASA-Astronaut communications struck just as he said "a," and an idiot named Walter Cronkite, in his haste to insert himself into the event, immediately repeated the truncated quote. He didn't even pause for two seconds to reason out why Neil would have said one small step for Man before continuing to speak about Mankind. Fcuking moron...
