"History" and the History Channel

[Skyraider3D]

No matter what channel I see aviation programs broadcasted on, I find myself saying "not true", "that's wrong", "nonsense" and "get outa here" several times per minute. Usually my wife then asks why I watch that stuff if it's all wrong anyway, after which I nod and switch the telly off I don't pretend to know it all, but the things uttered at some of these shows is just comical.

I seem to enjoy Japanese documentaries these days (YouTube!). I don't understand a word they say, but the footage is mind blowing and not shown before on any History, Discovery and whatnot channels.

That said occasionally these channels get their hands on some utterly rare footage without realising it. Some time ago I watched (part of) a Battle of Britain program, and while talking about Hurricanes they showed air-to-air footage of Morane-Saulnier Ms 406s. Totally wrong, but very interesting! It definitely beat their usual Japanese-painted Dauntlesses bombing Pearl Harbor again...
