Actually parts of the video looks like it came from the 2001 movie "Dark Blue World" and parts came from Pearl Harbor (Ben Affleck in the spit hitting the water and submerging).  Great video though.

All the Best...

I believe some of the footage also came from "The Battle of Britain."

There is another part to this but the music is HORRENDOUS!!!

The film is a combination of a few films I think with the first being mostly of DArk Blue World...which I have not seen...but WOW, Looks great!

The Dark Blue World is an allright film, but is more a lovestory than an awesome WW2 film. The flying scenes are great, but there could have been more of them I think.. But sure worth while watching for anyone slightly interrested in WW2 planes, and especially the spitfire gets some good closeup scenes.

To run it?

It's not computer generated.

Didn't you notice the post-war engines on the Heinkel? Didn't you notice the mixed variants of spitfires (spit9s? Twin deep coolers under the wings). It's mostly footage re-enacting something with post-war planes, like the BOB historical society does, but on film.

Only thing "generated" are the fake-looking explosions, the gunfire/tracers/hitsprites, and some of the scenes where the planes nearly hit each other are composited from different scenes.
