Great Info, thanks Mate, Regards Ozzi.

Anyone?
So this question is either too hard to answer coz no one knows, or it is too easy that everybody knows the answer except me?
Please, Ozzi.

Hi All,
As a novice in aircraft, what is the long(ish) tube that protrudes out of the left hand wing of the Zero aircraft, closer to the wing tip?
Is it a wind speed pickup or something similar/
Some people mistake it for a gun barrel, but there is only 1 & the guns sit closer to the wing root ...

RS,
Thanks for the info
Regards Peter.

Howdy Crew,
First timer here,
Can anyone tell me if the spent/fired 20mm cartridge cases were ejected from a Zero fighter plane or were they kept on board as ballast after being fired?
Thanks,
Peter.
