Wasn't the version in the film the slightly later one powered by the Merlin engine?

to be fair the film used a mix of different Mk spits. Not all one Mk, it was just any spits they could get their hands on really.

(this is true for nearly every game i play ... but a game like GTA4 it is different because you've got this carradio ... that's funny)
^^^^ What he said!

No music is authentic too... the RAF issued an order in 1939 banning the use of iPods by aircrew whilst flying, after a series of mishaps!

I was talking about the Hispano Buchons (Merlin engined Spanish built Bf109G2) used to represent the Bf109E, but yeah, there were a bunch of different Mks of Spitfire in that film.

Yes, that's why it was a joke.

the 109's in the film did have the merlin engine, alot of work went into making them "look more like 109's" for example... adding machine guns and cannons, sorting the wing tips out.

Alot of work went inot the film in trying to get so many aircraft together for filming.

I have te book on the making of the film, and one part goes on about when they arrived at duxford. Some old war vet was standing their looking at all theses swastikas on the field and hen said....

"well,its a strange sight isnt it? considering the fact that we won the war, i never thought id see a squadron of those buggers sitting on our airfields"

it made me chuckle

i dont think i will listen to any kind of music during flight time it just doesnt work for me gaming and then listen to music but i listen to almost everything acoustic rock mostly also some harder rock but also some Dutch rap music but i am very pickie when it comes to this rap and i also listen to dance/trance music (dj tiesto, armin van buren) i can apriciate some good bob marley when the moment is right so i like a real variety of music
