If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Looks like a mashup. Corsairs and Hellcats flying off the same carrier? Hmm. Especially loved the clip of the Corsair ground-looping. It was famous for that, at least until they changed the landing gear to eliminate (or at least reduce) the bounce. You had to have balls of iron to fly one of these guys, especially "landing" (more like "controlled crashing") on that tiny little postage stamp aircraft carrier deck (was that an escort carrier in one of those clips? Damn that was a small deck!).
ReplyDeleteWell, I had to title it *something* and I always have liked "Grumman Iron Works."
ReplyDeleteI think it was a CVE in at least one of those clips, they flew Wildcats off them.
I once chatted with a guy who did that. He said something surprising, which was that he thought the guys with real guts were the boiler tenders, for they were down there with no clue as to what was going on, no way of shooting at anything and if things went bad, they were all dead. he felt as though he at least had some control over his destiny.
