Thanks for that! I am indeed a "rivet counter"
Snap in the case of any project I'm involved in.

The Aircraft one is a bit of a hoot as well.

'Concorde, X-15, what the hell's the difference?'

To be honest, the only TV program or film drama that covered scientific achievements in WWII with any accuracy in my view, was the mini series that the BBC (and others) did about Oppenheimer in the early 1980s. Of course having a project that was stuffed with a number of people with huge ego's as the Manhattan Project did make invented drama totally unnecessary.
