That looks like one of my reoccurring nightmares when I was a kid. I was reading a lot of "Wings!", WWII air combat cartoons and I had this horrible nightmare sometimes of diving in a Stuka against a ship and every time I break the stick in two as I try to pull out of the dive ... *SNAP!* - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa a!

Hi Frenchy,

http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/wwii/photos/gallery_005/Stuka's%20final%20dive.jpg

I'm a bit sceptical about the authenticity of this photograph.

Normally, with the high speeds of aircraft, either the house or the aircraft should suffer from motion blur. (Trust me on that - I have considerable personal experience in taking blurred aircraft pictures :-)

Field of depth should also be noticable with the house so much closer than the Stuka.

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)

HoHun, at that height, the stuka better be really slow on that dive or will crash for sure.
