Boy those guys had some guts landing them on carrier flight decks
Spectacular prangs as they fought to 'get it right' Amazing footage
Interesting that the British pilots showed the way and taught the Yanks how to land their own planes
I'd love a go in one of those Corsairs Not on a carrier though

Just seen it. Those Kamikaze pilots gave the Yanks such a headache.
Taking the last few islands, Hundreds of thousands of allies would have died so its no wonder they dropped the bombs on Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

do it I've not seen it. As long as people walk away I like those kind of things.
It's a bit like Jackass, but on a serious scale

Well, it's a Quicktime file and on my cable modem here it'll take ages to download. Saw the first frames though.
I'll watch it tomorrow at work
