The Last Starfighter...
USMC:
Please pay tribute to one USAF Capt John Christopher, F-104 pilot, who tried to close for a VID......would an AIM-9B guide on a Warp or Impulse engine, stern-aspect?
In line with Jungle, I have been very disappointed by the History Channel's recent excursions into "supernatural phenomenom" shows. "Investigating" a "haunted house" by using Blair-Witch-like black and white video (shot jerkily and short-duration focus), and using an old Radio Shack Ohmmeter labelled "Ghost-ometer," does not make for educational history. It makes for cheap fodder, and lends credence to the ignorant, foolish, or desperate, that three chumps on late-night cable can somehow prove the existence of spirits and magic powers.
I've also seen "proof" that the "supersonic" F-117 has flying saucer technology...even the aviation shows are tainted.
Please, History Channel, give me more recreations of famous air battles (which are nicely-done computer animations). Show recreations of ancient Roman battles, boats, or machines, based on scientific excavations.
Just let it be based on fact.
