i have this on my ipod and i watch this on the bus and when i get bored in class incase of a ww2 history pop quiz but i have studied the war for 8 years so im already ok but i can add exta info for extra credit
Probably dog fighting with the Japanese Zeros Escorts. This is point of the war, Zero pilots are better trained and have a better plane, so the wildcats probably had a real tough time.
MacAruthur helped hide the war crimes of Shiro Ishii and Unit 731. By aiding war criminals himself he bordered closely on treason. Not to mention his plans for X-day were filled with little less than absolute folly and insanity.
he only rammed the ship because he was about to be shot down anyways. if u were on fire and had a choice to just crash, or to ram your enemy, what would u choose?
the narrator add some suspense in this show

"The plane bounces off the ship's island and crashes into the flight deck in a ball of mangled, twisted steel"
Quite a feat seeing as with most aircraft, it would have been a ball of mangled, twisted aluminum.

may be so, the burden on a leader is heavy.
1 question was asked... could we benefit from their research?
everything else was ignored

Macarthur was a criminal. Had he been a german or japanese, he would have been hanged after the war.

No, if your plane is on fire or damaged it would spiral out of control!
