Set some sort of altitude record? Other than that, no clue.


Not a bad guess. But actually that a British Vickers Vimy bomber. It was the first aircraft in history to make a non-stop transatlantic flight.

That is really cool. Guess I need to read up more about flight during that time period.

Wow. I've never understood the logic behind things like the LA riots. It would be like you and me being next door neighbors. You act like an a-hole towards me to the point I get pissed off and just to show you how mad I am at you, I burn down my house.

not that easy. I've seen it, I know it, I'm drawing a big ole blank. I know it was first developed just before the start of WWII at least partially inspired by the German BF-110. I just can't remember it's name.
