  1. I never actually understood the Japanese Zero even being a War Veteran until i watched the show in Grand Junction Colorado about 10 yrs ago.

    The Zero has a nimble way to achieve speed, then turn on a dime which would firce any enemy to over shoot from almost any attack angle.

    Hats off to Mitsubishi, what a incredible plane. Had the pilots been better trained to fly such a fighter the war may have been different.

  2. Those old fashioned machines cannot be built any longer. TSMC does it all without a pilot in the missing cockpits, safe flying VR seated on the ground even half a world away.

  3. Your presentation segment on the M-16 failure rate, leaves the impression that Colt was somehow responsible.
    Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and his cadre of collegiate whiz kids, decided that they were collectively smarter than designer/engineer Eugene Stoner.
    Whereas Stoner's specifications called for use of the newer conical propellant, the whiz kids changed it to ball powder that was already in supply.
    Stoner likewise specified chrome lined chambers and bores, that the whiz kids discarded thinking it to be an unnecessary extravagant expense.
    Just those two government overrides, to ball powder and non-chrome lined chambers and bores. produced carbon fouling that adhered to the
    interior of the weapon, thus creating a jammomatic suicide machine. AK-47s at 100yds. were far more effective over American troops armed with
    bayonets at the end of a M-16 stick. I would suggest that our current cultural self-destruction again sources directly back to the collegiate theoretical universe.

  4. Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent still-motion photography/maps enabling viewers to better understand what the orator is describing. Special thanks to guest speakers making this presentation more authentic and possible. Viewing this from the comfort of my computer room.

  5. Colt died of complications of GOUT. It was considered a rich mans disease. I had Gout diagnosed 40 years ago. I am not rich. Its hereditary. I was prescribed an orange pill about 1/3rd larger than an aspirin. I have taken one a day since. I didn't get the pain in my toes like most victims, I had excruciating pain in a knee which was torn in a football game years before, not even painkilling pills (Percocet) had any relief. In those days they gave out PPs like candy. (Beer) and that's how I contracted it. (GOUT) from what I was eating and drinking (BEER).

  7. Heavy emphasis on the shocking statistic that Japanese pilots were entering combat with 300 hours flight time…in WW1, at the worst stage, British pilots were sent to the front after 10 hours, yes 10! At that stage a trainee can barely take off, do a circuit, and land, even in a modern enclosed, smooth, easily controlled, stable, reliable plane…let alone fly one of those misbehaved wood & canvas contraptions well enough to aim, fire guns, and do aerobatics without pulling the wings off, to evade experienced German experts. They were slaughtered, with an average life expectancy of 11 days.
    Not really relevant to this video, but an interesting contrast.
