[QUOTE="Silverstrike, post: 16868575, member: 4781"] Looks like a F4F did a nose over hard to tell if the pilot damaged the prop. from the distance but I would say yes on that. Here is some more WWII trivia the Soviet I-16 and USN F4F had manual crank main landing gears but it took over 50 revolutions to retract the I-16's while the F4F was only 15 due to a higher gear ratio for the Grumman fighter. Why wonder those Soviet fliers seem to be over whelmed once in the air. [/QUOTE]
