This demonstrates what that theme tune does....how beautiful is this soundtrack but oh so much more when the music comes in...I dare you not to get a wry smile of pride!

Very nice.
Now If that was a CloD Lancaster

With No3 engine startup It would be yawing hard to port
With No4 engine startup It would be veering uncontrolably to port
With No2 engine startup No3 would be starting to overheat
With No1 engine startup No3 would be cooking No4 overheating
and you would be getting the dreaded messages......
"blown cylinderhead gasket No3 engine... radiator leak No4 engine...Oil leak No3 engine...

Agree good movie and no CGI. I also wouldn't doubt if parts of the movie"red tail" was filmed there (Valencia,Ca.) also were Ba,Ba Black Sheep was filmed. Just outside from L.A. and about accuracy I would agree about not holding your breath. But that's Hollywood! Next, Battle of Britian flying P-51B sorry to my British friends.

Not being biased in any way whatsoever but a symphony of merlins on the Lanc turns me into the 5 year who remembers the first time I saw them. In no way do I get at all giddy as the Duxford Wing will testify too......

Anyone seen anything recent about John Woo's Flying Tigers project? I'm interested to see the Chinese take on the AVG and perhaps a more accurate portrayal of the AVG as opposed to John Wayne's old B&W film.

It was supposed to start filming this past spring, but there hasn't been any news since August 2010.

At least Red Tails is on the horizon. Might need to turn my brain off for some of it, but I plan on being entertained.
