    ORIGINAL PHOTO OF JAPANESE TYPE ZERO AIRCRAFT.....according to it's seller!

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0040047479

    Looks like a Ki-43 to me....and it could even be a fake (altough it looks like that same aircraft is in the other picture on the airfield) :roll:

    Here is an airfield full of those so called Zero's (again no zero's Ki-27's and Ki-43's)

    About the 1st picture... I don't think to be a Zero too,the canopy seems short to me...Also, there is no sign of wing cannons...

    Hi.

    Pic 1 is a Nakajima Ki-43, no doubt. And thereĀ“s a nice Nakajima Ki-36/L1N1 transporter in the background.

    Pic 2 seems to be Ki-27 only....

    Yours

    tom! ;)

    Here's an unusual photo of a Zero.

    Can anyone spot what's wrong with this picture ?

    :x

    Don't see why the Americans couldn't have captured a Zero for thier own use. Other than that fact that it would be pointless....

    My grandfather saw an x-box (with controllers and 42 games) for less than 5 dollars US. Sold for much higher than that obviously.

    My history teacher told us there are mummies being sold. Anyone seen one?

    thousands of mummies were dug up and sold to weathy tourists in the late 1800s and early 1900s ,tho they were from egypt they were from the greek era mostly and not of the time of the pharoes...ie cleopatra was really a greek girl descended from one of alexanders generals..the greeks adopted the burial practices of the locals...

    Did you just change your post? That was weird....

    Did you know the the Minotaur is the byproduct of a woman having sex with a bull? It took a while for the class to get over that. And the woman whose brother kicked her to death when she told him she'd been raped (the other guy tripped her with ropes across the pathe b/c he couldn't run as fast as she was)

    beating to death sisters or wives who have been raped is a quaint little custom that is still practised today in many muslim countrys...here in the us coutroom defence stategies and the victems new found notoriety keeps most women from reporting rapes to this day...
