Gatchamarie, I have to agree the best part of Alcatraz is the view and the trip to and from. The some of most interesting parts of the prison aren't shown on the traditional tours (I really wanted to see evidence of the Native American protest and the supposed damage, but it was barely touched on). It is well worth the trip, but if you are more of a nature buff than a history or prison buff, then I'd recommend Angel Island.

Also, I'm wondering how Jun would have done in her shot at piloting if she had to do something other than keep the GP in the air. The plot was more focused on what was going on inside the mecha than GP. I'm wondering if maybe Jinpie was teasing her while we were watching the others get tossed around.

Now, in episode 26, I can buy that Joe might not be a great God Phoenix pilot, as race cars are his specialty, but Ken is a skilled pilot! Yes, the God Phoenix is a lot bigger than his G-1, but still... But it had all of those unwieldy extra pieces on it, which made it difficult to fly.

I do like how Ken looks in those pants. Ken as Condor. :evilgrin:

G-1 would have had to train in flying the Phoenix before the team went on duty, and he -and everyone else- probably does enough training to 'keep their hand in', but when you add together a plane that's not his primary vehicle, the cruddy aerodynamics of the camouflage, and that the Eagle usually sits in the co-pilot's chair, not the pilot's, it adds up to a potential mess.

In the early 1970's, capital punishment was banned in the United States (for a few years). Books referring to the ban often interchange 'abolish' and 'moratorium'. (Authors who need to learn dictionaries are useful.) This might explain the inconsistencies over the differeing episodes of Gatch: If the matter of the death penalty is still being fought out in the world courts of Utoland's world, it could be that the Jinjin prisoners could be sent to the chair if the decision is eventually decided to revive the death penalty
