The Flying Porcupine

This plane is a RAF Sunderland Mark III. One just like this fought off eight German Ju 88 pilots in 1943. Shot down three, and the rest were badly damaged. It was then respectfully nicknamed Stachelschwein [porcupine] by the Germans. It was used to rescue torpedoed ship crews, a rubber raft was kept inflated so it could be ready in a minutes notice. The British were very proud of their "FlyingBoat." It was used for 21 years of service, more than any other RAF plane at that time.

10\22

I got this 10/22 a few weeks ago it is zeroed in. The sight is really good for squirrel hunting. We got the banana clip after the gun. :) It came with a 10 rounder which is ideal for squirrel hunting. I got a squirrel with it out the dining room widow (on the second shot ). We are going to get an AR-15 stock from http://www.tapco.com/ for $85. That's a great deal!

My Favorite WWII Plane

This is my favorite WWII plane. It and the Hawker Hurricane won the ''Battle of Brittan''
in 1940. Many British pilots died in that battle from the bullets of German airplanes, like the ME-109. This plane is a Spitfire, it looks almost identical to a Hurricane from a distance, but the spit is more maneuverable and 35 mph faster. It was modified from a high speed float plane
into one of the best fighters of WWII.
