Considering the means engaged which were not inconsiderable by the way especially for a Czech movie compared to a Hollywood one, the aerial sequences were quite excellent!
A very enjoyable movie to watch witch leaves you with a lasting impression (at least for people watching the movie...not just waiting for the first airplane appearance and going back to sleep after the last one )

Well said.
This is one of the few war movies I've persuaded my gf to sit through, and she was in tears by the end.
It's an outstanding example of how Europe just does cinema better than Hollywood, and if people can't appreciate DBW, they should stick to picking over Dogfights.
