I found a fun World War II American Aircraft trivia quiz and wanted to share it with all of you.  It only takes about five minutes to complete and afterwards it provides your score and the correct answers as well as explanations of each.

I was astounded to find I did not score as highly as I expected, attaining a score of 13/20 (though one answer I still do not completely agree with).  Give it a whirl and post your resulting score in the comments section.  I have a feeling several of you will do better than I did.  Anyway, it’s all in good fun.  Good Luck!
