The P-40 is my favorite bird, and this part is a good bit of WW II, on the ground training footage, with quite a bit of cockpit operation detail. Aside from the Nationalistic "Hero corn" , (" With planes like these, and men like these....(think white scarf blowing in the breeze out of the open canopy), it is good, and quite detailed on the controls. P-40 part mostly B&W. The P-38 part is also military film, but in color, and has some really good footage in the air, also cockpit training with emergency stuff. All in all, if you like these planes, you should like this tape !!

THIS is one of the good ones -- IF you can live with the fact that the producers crammed TWO wonderful planes into ONE film and used 1940s technology (what choice?). I've been living on a borrowed copy and finally found this source to get my own.

I like the Kittyhawk and Lightning alot and... I'm sorry but I can't think of anything to say!
