Bristol Bulldog - The 'Pilots Dream Fighter'
Today, the plucky Bristol Bulldog is the focus of our attention. I have a soft spot for this machine, so this video is a little longer than the usual "overview" video.

    Great video. Only a correction: no French volunteers flew the Hawker Fury (with Hispano engines), only Spaniard pilots, and Lieutenant Monico was downed by Garcia LaCalle, who would be an Ace on the Republican side and would rise to the range of Commander and chief of all republican fighters.

    F.A.Q Section - Ask your questions here :) Q: Do you take aircraft requests? A: I have a list of aircraft I plan to cover, but feel free to add to it with suggestions:) Q: How do you decide what aircraft gets covered next? A: Supporters over on Patreon now get to vote on upcoming topics such as overviews, special videos, and deep dives. Q: Why do you use imperial measurements for some videos, and metric for others? A: I do this based on country of manufacture. Imperial measurements for Britain and the U.S, metric for the rest of the world, but I include text in my videos that convert it for both.
