You Guys Kill me!... How about you go and see the movie for the entertainment, and to pay respect to the brave men that flew these machines! (Both German and American)Is this a true representation of what a real P-51 could do in real life? NO! Is it a Made for the BIG Screen Hollywood production with crazy fight scenes and Big explosions! Yeah... Why you ask??? Because it costs over a 100 million to make, and they wouldn't even come close to making money catering to our Flight Sim niche group. Of course we would love to see real aircraft in aerial ballet...The Mass audience doesn't care about the stall speed of the P-51.. or that the markings on the 109's aren't correct...Its about telling a story and making money...and maybe not in that order..heh
And while im on the subject, whats with all the American Bashing that has been going on? I might not post on here very much, but Im on here almost every day.. I usually dont post, unless im trying to help a fellow player with something in the game. Ill be the first one to tell you that Im no expert at flying, nor am I a historian... But It has really made me upset with the amount of animosity I see towards us. Im sure there has been crappy comments from Americans in these Forums(and I hate to see that).. but its not hard to find someone taking a jab at us..Especially when anything "American" is brought up...just an observation..
