It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Well, while it's Hollywood, it's also Clint Eastwood.
Good craftsman ;)

I read the book while I was in Panama last month.  One of the most heartbreaking books I have ever read.  I truly hope Spielberg and Eastwood do it justice.

Just saw the trailer.  Brought it all back.  Especially with Harlon's mom recognizing her boy.  

Also the cockpit shot from the F-4U looked very good.

That would be the "indian", Adam Beach.
AFAIK, lots of our gear was used in "Windtalkers", and some of our Sergeants had been working on it.
Then there is Barry Pepper who was the sniper in "Saving Private Ryan".
