    Playing with more aircraft. Got off work today a little earlier than normal, so had some time to build an A-10 Thunderbolt-ish aircraft I couldn't stop thinking about trying out. She handles very well for a quick bolt-together without much fine tuning.

    It looks like an A-10 had a baby with an SR-71. :

    The charriot is almost the worst idea of using horses in the battle. 

    It's important to remember that ancient horses were somewhat smaller than modern ones. (They have been bred for larger size in the centuries since.) Not only was it difficult to stay on a horse before the stirrup was invented but the horses of the time would have difficult carrying the weight of a man, especially if he was wearing armor. So they yoked a couple of their smaller horses to a chariot as a way to increase battlefield mobility without riding the horses directly. 

  3. Why are more and more movie roles going to fewer and fewer people? Chris Pine is in the Star Trek movies and the Wonder Woman movies. Zoe Saldana is in the Trek movies and the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. Chris Pratt is in the Guardians movies and the Jurassic Park movies. Ian McKellan is in the X-men movies and the Tolkien movies. Andy Serkis is in everything. Henry Cavill is in the DC movies and was in The Witcher. Michael Fassbender is in the X-men movies and the Alien sequels (or prequels or whatever they are). When new actors get to Hollywood there must be a sign at the edge of town that says, "Sorry, full up."
