They aint different at all, table tennis is just a name given to it to make it sound more professional by the pussies that play it...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

how dare you, the people at the international table tennis federation wouldn't be very happy to hear you type that.............

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yeah but the only people dull enough to take it up as a profession are the Japs and Far east people, but theyre so small anyway they dont see how it differs from normal tennis

I'd love to hear about the N3N. I read about it in an Air Classics magazine and learned there were other trainers besides the Boeing-Stearman PT-17. The author called it the "Yellow Peril." I remember him writing it was faster(?) than the Stearman. "No brag. Just fact." he wrote. This was over 50 years ago.

Oh yeah,
B-17 (The B model especially)
PBY Catalina.
Just about any plane currently under discussion.
F-86 (Not the one with the goofy nose)
Brewster Buffalo

You'll have to dig down to 2003 or so, but I don't think the oldest posts (before the 2.0 upgrade in fall of 2003) were archived.
The site itself goes back to 2000, however.
