    Ok, seeing as I've read through the crevo threads quite enough, I am planning to show exactly why creationism is bunk to certain relatives and my church.I'm just posting this thread in the hopes of getting some ideas on the how bit.

    This thread is designed to bring to note a rather impressive aircraft from WWII, the Ilyushin IL-2 "Sturmovik". As the IL-2 served on the Eastern Front during WWII, it is less well known in western circles than the P-51, Bf-109 or any of the Spitfire variants. The IL-2 was designed for one thing only, ground attack. At this it performed quite well, earning the name "Black Death" from German troops. Basics: The IL-2 was the Soviet WWII equivalent to our A-10, in other ways than just the function. The IL-2 was designed to place the pilot, the engine and the...
