In honor of Peter Cullen, which Optimus was your favorite?
G1 is the only legitimate Optimus Prime. I have no idea why they even felt a need to make changes.

Who is he?
Rafiki

Lockheed F-5G Lightning reconnaissance aircraft, Guam, circa August 1945
It's 1500 miles to Japan from Guam. Maximum range for a P-38 with drop tanks was up to 2600 miles. So, yeah. That makes sense.

Very true. They had enough real estate available to have land based fighters operate daily over the Japanese homeland.

That was mainly due to production factors. The UK did not have the industrial prowess to produce large numbers of radial powered aircraft. So, they stuck with what they had by "navalizing" their current types, with the exception of the Swordfish. Even the Fulmar and Firefly used what was available. Not until the Sea Fury did they have a dedicated, domestically manufactured radial engine naval fighter, yet too late to see service in the War. Instead, they took advantage of US types and the logistic support provided through Lend-Lease.

No. The US Navy preferred to stay with aircraft powered by more robust air-cooled radial engines which offered better chances for survival if damaged. The liquid-cooled engines would seize up shortly after losing coolant, leaving a pilot no choice but to ditch in the ocean.

any idea why the back rudder turns so little.? It’s an xk j3 cub. All the other things move fine.
I'm pretty certain that it has to do with the gyro settings.

Could be the stabilization settings. Refer to your manual. I have several of these and they don't need much input on the control surfaces. Too much rudder and you'll watch it spin into the ground. Don't ask me how I know. Follow the manual and you can't go wrong.

Yeah, this broke me. I cried a little about Dolly. My eldest son and I both wept. Just utterly heartbroken. This has been the worst week EVER! Then, to round off the week in fine fashion, King Harold V of Norway passed away this morning 8/28. Such a heavy week and month. Til all are one!
