  • Link the story about the Rivet Ball from the Smithsonian air and space article, please. Great info so people can appreciate what they see here. Thanks for posting this!!!

  • This is quite possibly one of the finest aviation history films of all time. I had to watch twice. The crash scene is very compelling. Thank you for posting this!

    RIP crew of Rivet Amber

  • Interesting look at a mission very few people knew about. Thanks for risking your lives over the Bearing Straights, and in Soviet Air Space.
