I noticed a lot of "Hollywood" stuff in there. Why can't these film makers just keep things historical?

Plus he never says the CGI flight model is accurate or looks realistic, he just says they have tried hard, which they prob have.

The pilots are black. So it will be one or two Americans who were really born in Kenya shooting down 10 naughty Germans.

because most folks doesnt care about historical accuracy and aviation as we do....nor they are so deep into the subject (most of my friends couldnt tell the difference between bf109 and FW190)...then again, movie is for entertainment...documentaries are about history
