4.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting look at aircraft.,
By
This review is from: Wings: Evolution of Air Power (DVD)
I would have given it five stars, but the special "Wings Over Afghanistan" did not feature the aircraft, but merely mentioned jets in the context of Afghanistan missions. I would have liked to hear more about all of the various aircraft used in Afghanistan as well as see them in flight.
The special on the Thunderbirds was spot-on, delivering an in-depth look at maneuvers and training of the Air Force Thunderbirds. I'm not sure what I expected the third special to be, but it would be an excellent introduction to someone not familiar with powered flight and "heavier-than-air" flying machines. For a short time I worked on F-15 Avionics and was afforded much exposure to various flightcraft. My brother just recently finished 6 years of being a crew chief for C-5s, the largest transport plane currently in use, and my grandfather was a mechanic on P-38 Lightnings during WW2. I would recommend this set for the look at the Thunderbirds, and the mild education on flight physics, but I would suggest you keep looking if attack aircraft interest you.
