Which was faster? Brewster Buffalo or Me 262?

Well I made 2 models an ME 262 and a buffalo I threw them off my porch and they crashed into the ground in awesome fashion.....
the ME hit the ground first...

You should also be retired with time on your hands an planning an overseas trip later in the year.

I don't 'get'' people who aren't like me.
Next thing you'll be telling me you work!!

Retire ls? Why should she? She is about 50 years younger than you! And with a name like that she will never reach retirement age! lcm1

It has to do with my unabashed elitism and the growth in the post-war era of air travel for 'the masses'.

Does anyone else share a similar revulsion for a particular plane, tank, transport vehicle or any piece of military hardware?

Oh, and it can't be a loathing based on a bad personal experience (like trying to use a sten gun, wearing a 'battle bowler' or a stormy Atlantic crossing in a WWI era 4 stack destroyer!), it must be a nuanced and articulated intellectual loathing.

I do share with you a loathing for FW-190s.
