WWII aviation films every one should watch

[McQ59]

I grabbed a copy of Piece of cake when Dave& I was down at Hendon last summer. Love it. That '80's visuals and short-cuts with the spits. And the right scarfs. Brilliant.
Just saw 12 O'clock high a cpl of weeks ago. A true Classic.

I'm not sure if the WWII flyboystory to the movie I most want to see is yet written, but if it is or ever will be, I hope I live to see the Cohen-brothers do it. They do know how to play.
