Carrier Islands by
Thomas W Ping
Are there aviation-related reasons why the starboard side is favored

What if we ignored N. Africa and the MTO? by
ArtKramr
What then? The war in central Europe (ETO) could have gotten our full
resouces, D Day would have been a year earlier and the war would have been

SHOULD YOU OPEN FIRE? by
ArtKramr
SHOULD YOU OPEN FIRE?
Easy question right? Are you sure? Let's take a case in point. You are sitting
in the top turret of a bomber. You spot a formation of fighters coming toward
you. They are clearly the P-51 fighter escort you have been waiting for.
"About time they showed up", you are...

Tornado - fast belly landing by
MichaelJP
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/3292551.stm
What do you think, would the airframe be a write-off?
Would the USAF do this or just eject as the safer, although more expensive
option?
