  As a (1940's thru) 1950's Naval Aviator's son I was very fortunate to be one of those photographing the HUP's crane lift aboard IOWA, as a PBC volunteer. Somewhat of a nail-biter seeing such a rare and historic object so high off the deck. The helicopter graveyard at the very end is sobering. It's duplicated too many places for all forms of aviation.

  this man is one of the few people around who saw the Yamato in action. What's really sobering is that Yamato was only engaging Hoel with her *secondary* battery of 6.1 and 5 inch guns, Gambier Bay on the other hand got the attention of the infamous 18 inch guns, including the hit that put Gambier Bay out of action.

  Thanks for adding to the discussion. In my opinion, the folks at the Centennial made a huge mistake by not building the 1905 (or better, the 1908 Flyer that the Wrights demonstrated to the US Army at Ft. Myer). The Wrights made considerable progress in the two years after the first flight in December 1903: From Encyclopedia Britannica: During the 1905 season the Wrights further developed a catapult launch system designed to overcome the problem of taking off in the light winds prevailing at Huffman Prairie. A 1,400-1,600-pound (635-725-kilogram) weight was pulled to the top of a derrick at the rear of the launch rail. A half-inch line ran over pulleys at the top and bottom of the derrick, down the length of the rail, over another pulley, and back to the airplane, where it was attached to a quick-release clamp. When the weight was dropped, the airplane sped down the track and into the air. By October 1905 the Wrights were circling Huffman Prairie in flights of a half-hour’s duration.

  @@kaviski1 A contribuição dos Wright para aviação só veio no ano de 1908. Dois anos depois do vôo pioneiro de Santos Dumont. Em 1908, Santos Dumont já tinha voado, Henry Farman, Leon Delagrange e Glee Curtis. Tanto que oficialmente os Wright foram os 8 no MUNDO. Mostrar uma foto sem data 5 anos depois dos fatos junto com um telegrama escrito pelos próprios Wright não prova nada. Tudo o que os Wright alegam que fizeram entre 1903 a 1907 não existem provas sérias!
