Unlucky WWII Aircraft Crews [Real World WWII footage]
Even if it probably already is a well known video, for those who have not seen it:
http://youtu.be/Cxqg_ub3xAw I do not want to know what some of the pilots and crews thought in their last moments. What also impressed me quite a bit: The extra mounted fuel tanks seem to have been a ticking bomb. Easy to hit and creating some big explosion. Regards DUI Btw: How do I embed a Youtube video? Just copying the embedding code from Youtune does not seem to work. Last edited by DUI; 03-11-2012 at 08:14 PM.

The second shot of the B-17 feathering an outer engine is a reverse of the first one. Somebody just flipped the film around. That seems to happen a lot in these old war films. The people doing the editing either don't know the difference, or figure the viewer won't notice.
The two shots of the B-17 close up, on fire, and pretty well blown up is from an early test of ground to air missiles. A Nike Hercules, I think, in this case. I always like the shots where the pilot shoves the stick forward with his foot, to put negative G's on the plane, and then pops out of the cockpit. binky9
