They did?  Well, I only sort of scanned the article about the German
planes--maybe I misread the purpose of the synchronization device in
that one, too.  I can understand a propeller could be built to with-
stand the odd bullet, but isn't there a non-negligible danger in that
of stray ricochets backfiring at plane and pilot?

I'm wondering whether it would be embarrassing if I got that one
wrong.  I mean, first people find out they can't rely on such little
details, and next thing they notice R.B. never went to the Moon, ei-
ther.

Pretty soon then I may get forced to cancel the strip on charges of
recklessly misleading the public, or something...
