Just for the fun of it!

I have just watched all three episodes to the Dambusters Story.

It is one of the best aviation documentaries I have ever seem. When you see the determination, ages, conditions these pilots operated in it really makes you take into consideration where this current generation has allowed itself to lead itself.

The men in this documentary were fearless and leaders who also understood discipline and professionalism.

Overall to be frank, I am ashamed that so many from this era, from every segment of society and service, risked thier life’s or ultimately gave them for protecting society for us to have allowed it to become so disrespectful and unhinged.

Gorgeous airplane that was way ahead of its time. Story is the Germans studied it intently prior to the war and many of its features and ideas were incorporated into the Fw190

Still the pinnacle machine of human engineering

Indeed

When I was a kid an going to the Pails Valley Oklahoma Fly-in one of these would always show up and is was a show stopper. Originally I thought it was a pieced together contraption but eventually I learned it was a Australian crop duster that had a lot of engineering and thought put into the design.

I also saw one used in one of the later Mad Max movies. This is a cool formation photo.
