last night on PBS - Nova they did a program on the construction of the Forbidden City.

They moved 40 ton blocks of stone on ice.

The constructed a scale model (no nails, screws or glue) of one of the buildings and it stayed together in a simulated magnitude 10 earth quake.

There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
