I don't think they are real as there is no record of an Owen Wright flying for the RAF during the Battle of Britain.

The only Wright's that are credited,

Wright A R. Lieutenant
Wright E W. Sergeant
Wright J. Sergeant......... Killed
Wright D L. Sergeant.......Killed
Wright W. Pilot Officer.....Killed
Wright R R. Sergeant

Yeah, I'm taking it that their just made up for the game. And that their "diaries" are probably just made up?

Well, from the Tiger Hunt mission in the demo I can tell you that Glen Duncan and John Meyer were real piots for the U.S. during World War 2.

There is a guy in my hometown that flies a P-51D with the markings of Lt. Col. John C. Meyer (Petie 2nd).

It may be possible that they did not get the rights to use the real pilots names from the real pilots if they are alive, or the family members of dead ww2 pilots..

For me its not a big deal... I am sure they have modeled the "fake" pilots after Real life ones. but then again I may be totally wrong.

oh yeah, id be playing right now on 360, but its CFB season, and I have to watch due to my addiction to football... ( american football ) not the football non americans watch. ( we call it soccer )...
