Why was Akator so hard to find?

[Kingsley]

Your argument is fair to a point but...Crusade still holds more water when examined.

Plus, planes were around 20 years more in KOTCS than in LC... that's about the double of time (40 years after aviation really kicked off in WWI), and a lot more of tecnological development too.

But hey, they recently found a tribe that never had contact with our civilization...
