Zero fighter plane being prepped for first flight since WWII

Two great photographs--I had no idea the Zero was that small--with an interesting story.

The cockpit was small, but externally it had typical dimensions for a WW2 single-engine fighter. This photo shows that quite nicely: http://www.warbird-photos.com/airsho..._Zero_4442.jpg
