This is one of the coolest WWII films I've seen.  If no one has watched it yet it is a must.

Its really like the video a pilot learning the F4U would watch. 

Cool stuff.  Thanks.

There really is a lot to it isn't there. I thought after flying this game for so long that I might be able to fly a real plane and in fact I have flown but only for a short period of time. I did not take off or land but the little Cessna I was in did not have nearly as much stuff as these F4U either.

Awesome find A8tool, thanks for sharing.  When you see all the details required to just take off in a WWII fighter, you can really appreciate what modern jet pilots mean when they refer to pilot information overload.  Great film.

Great find!  Thanks for posting that!  That video would be worth watching, just to hear the F4U.  :D  But it's even better then that!
