If im correct, also the HE111's used in the film didnt have the HE111's engine but something different, not sure what.

For the film they had a fair few spitfires but only 2 or 3 airworthy hurricanes.

Still one of the greatest war films ever made!!

battle of britain
633 squadron
the dambusters

three superb war films.
Yes, the He-111s had a different engine than they would have. Also, there weren't as many He-111s as it seems. Actually, there was just 1 single He-111, and I've actually been in it. It was in Arizona, and I saw it fly over. Thought it was weird, drove a bit more. Suddenly there's a Air Museum, and the He-111 had just taxied to a stop. I even got to get in it, and look around. Looks just like the real thing. Also, the Spitfires in the movie, were actually MkIXs!!!!

EDIT: Also, some Leo Kottke is good to play when your flying.
