"Feared suicide warplane flies again"
ROFL! But it does make one hungry for a charbroiled meatball sandwich!

Cool, interesting video. Yeah it was a famous fighter plane back then until WWII broke out, ran wild for least twelve months or more until new generation of fighters started rolling in. It has unbelievable range though and good firepower, just the speed is alittle slow.

The losses to the pilot core without proper training of replacements also played something into it too

Sort of looking at the picture below the pilot looks kind of big sitting in the cockpit compared to the plane. Were Zeros really that small or is this some sort of aftermarket model or something

Well either the pilot is over six feet tall, most Japanese pilots are short.
Btw they did a great job putting all this together from crash site. Interesting hobby.
