"THE GREAT GAZOO"
You do that!!!!I will continue to look for where I read this, but if I'm wrong, I'll say so.
Did I use profanity? No - oh wait, by calling your statement bullshit??? Because it was. Please gow a pair!!!Lot's of people make mistakes, including me, but I don't think that's any reason to use profanity, or question someone's integrity, if the mistake was an honest one and not an attempt to deceive.
I have no problem with some minor error or some one's lack of knowledge on a certain subject but I at this point by even coming up with a comment as you did with nothing substantiating your claim is a question of your integrity!!! Why don't you just come out and say that Lancasters were launched off the Hornet in 1942?!?!?
Yes, the Lanc was considered for the bomb - totally irrelevant in this discussion. As far as the designer of the Lancaster being consulted on the design of the B-29? - Please show a reference, but its funny - The B-29 was designed in 1939. Something smells funny!!!!The Lanc was considered for the A-bomb, and some of it's features ended up in the B-29 and this occurred after the designer of the Lanc was consulted on the project. The B-29 Silverplate mod program was behind schedule, and the Lancaster was in production in Canada, and I'll leave it at that for now, pending more research.
The B-29 carried the fighter right to the Japanese and this claim that it entered the war late is another baseless argument. It participated in WW2, just about crushed Japan into submission and was around for the next war. So far you have produced nothing to back up your first statement or any other of your gibberish.The Me-262 was "a superior and more advanced" fighter, but that certainly doesn't qualify it as the" best overall" fighter, IMHO, because of it's late introduction and limited overall impact on the war.
