Re: date format
Can I make one plea in the imperial/metric debate
A Spitfire does not have an 11.23 metre wingspan or 7.7 mm Browning machine guns
Equally a Fw190 does not have 0.79" cannon
Please would people use the units that applied at the time, if you want to put the equivalent in brackets afterwards to aid comparison that is fine
The other day I read that Mustangs were fitted with 340 litre drop tanks with no sign of US Gals anywhere and it hurt, it really hurt
