Comments by "Mike Armstrong" (@mikearmstrong8483) on "Let’s Settle This. What Was the Fastest Piston Fighter Ever?" video.
@JakubTabas_web Why? Speed is speed. This video isn't titled "The fastest piston engined fighter at specifically 15,381 feet 7 inches".

@JakubTabas_web I'm very well versed in physics, thank you. The point is that the video is about the highest speeds, not the highest speeds at any specific altitude. An aircraft that tops out at 480 mph at 20,000 feet is still faster than one that tops out at 460 mph at 15,000 feet, even if the the first one is slower than 460 mph at 15,000 feet.

While not at the top, I think it quite impressive that Argentina, a minor power and not a belligerent, with an aviation industry limited in capacity and experience, even got on this list at all.
