From cutting the trees in the forest to the final product. (might want to turn the audio off)


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.

Cool! Thx for the find.

Would rather go up in one of them than a 737 Max frown

Very cool. You are right about ditching the sound.

I bet Dart could have used some of those workers when he built his.


Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

The number of women surprised me for WW!. I knew large numbers of women worked in the munitions industry in WW1.

I thought the exact same thing.

very interesting, so many skills required. it put me to mind of my mother working in California during WWII on P38 and others. She had to take a math course here to qualify. I have her ID and some note books. She worked there while Dad was in the Army air corps.
