We would like to thank you once more for the lovely ideas you offered Janet when preparing her post-graduate research plus, most importantly, regarding providing all the ideas in a blog post. Provided we had known of your website a year ago, we might have been saved the unwanted measures we were selecting. Thanks to you. toys for adults

Among others, F1M2s equipped the floatplane units in seaplane carriers Chitose and Mizuho during the East Indies Campaign through March 1942, providing both anti-air and anti-submarine defense for invasion convoys to Menado/Kema, Kendari, Ambon, and Timor. Over Kema, Celebes, on 11 Jan. they turned back seven PBY Catalinas in a level bombing formation, shooting down one Dutch and one USN PBY.

the Japanese stuff has some special mystique imo. These things (as opposed to the Rufe float-zero) actually fought dogfights in the Solomons with US P39s...the P39 was so bad that it was actually a more even match than it might look on paper...not only the Japanese battleships, but the big cruisers in particular like Chokai, Mogami and Tone, would also have a mixed catapult group of up to 5 of these and the larger twin-flat "Jack" scouts.

There are documents available through the Smithsonian showing all of the dimensions and individual parts of the Pete. Unfortunately there are fees... but you might be able to select the images you want.

Could you please help me with some cockpit photos of this plane? I've been searching for a while and haven't found anything at all.
