F-10 (F3D) Skyknight

[Gondor]

Thank you. But I agree that this one turned out nicely, even looking very much like the planned aircraft. 

However, I still wonder about the ignorance of the video makers: after all, the picture shows a fictional F3D-3, which is not referred to in the video, and on the carrier in the background there are F-4s, an RA-5C and even an A-6, so that I can just scratch my head about the "experts'" historical standards, which are (self-)claimed to be high... 

The accuracy of some of these YouTube channels is really questionable. In the video about the Me 323 he says contra-rotating propellers which is absolute rubbish unless it was intended to say that the propellers on one wing rotated in one direction while those on the other wing rotated in the opposite direction.
The background video is no better. In the video on the Hs 129 some of the tanks shown were M60-'s, Israeli I think, and lots of the aircraft types is the videos are not of the same aircraft, an assembly line for F-86's when talking about other aircraft. Poor quality control all over although I do like the formatt and voice of the narrator and some of the information is new to me.

Yeah, I see the confusion on contra-rotating versus counter-rotating on a regular basis


Oh, I see it's Dark Skies, one of the most rubbish of YouTube "historians".

The YouTube channel's editor NOW contacted me - after my public request to add proper credit or simply ASK before using stuff via google was simply deleted w/o comment or reaction. I ponder if I should reply at all, but I probably will, just to get my point across.

At least it's a step in the right direction although it is more a case of shutting the gate after the hourse has bolted.
