I also think the RA used the planes in the best way, having invented the skip bombing technique way before it was seen in the Pacific Funny that you mentioned that. I was watching a special on TV a few days (mostly on the Pacific war) and they mentioned it. I had never heard it before (sorry for th...

Yes, Indi is a nice city. My dad works there, though we live about an hour away by interstate. He's okay with the commute because he doesn't particularly want to live in the city.

Yes, Photobucket. I like them because they incorporate all the urls for every picture you post. All you need to do is drag your cursor over the photo and they magically appear.

Aeroal,

I have the Osprey Aircraft of the Aces #34: Italian Aces of World War II. The cover, as already mentioned, is a very nice painting of Reiner's C.202 with a flaming Spitfire trailing away in the background. It is a great book, if you can find it--I had some trouble as it has apparently been out of pr...
