I'm looking to collect a list of TV Series about aviation.
So far (from the most favorite):
- National Geographic: Air Crash Investigation (aka Mayday) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayday_(TV_series))
- History Channel: Dogfights (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogfights_(TV_series))
- Heroes of the Skies (http://www.heroesoftheskies.com/tvseries/tvseries.html)
- Discovery: Wings (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wings_(Discovery_Channel_TV_series)), with subseries: Great Planes, Strange Planes, Wings of the Luftwaffe, Wings of the Red Star and Sea Wings.
- Wings Of Russia (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL69B0CB4788F64720)
What also would you recommend?

Military channel Air Aces
I saw this advertise, but I never got to see it. Is it any good?

While it's not a series Speed and Angels is worth a watch. Free on Hulu.

Hunters in the Sky was one of my favorites. I don't think it aired as a series, if memory serves it was originally sold as VHS collection, later it was re-issued on DVD. Was filmed back 1991 and has interviews with many of the aces who have since passed.

Military channel Air Aces
Actually it is the same series called "Heroes of the Skies" of History Channel:

(Mentioned it in the original message)
And it is very nice indeed, however I haven't seen them all, I saw about George Beurling, Douglas Bader and Robin Olds

i quite enjoy the series. It covers history of the individual or group such as the red tails and gets into concepts such as lead angle and acm. I would recommend the series to anyone interested in the era which is most likely everyone on the site lol

Strange Planes ,an old BBC series that is a must see!
There are a couple of other BBC shows about A/C but the names escape me.
:salute
PS: check out Zeno's drive in,he sells DVD's and has footage that's extremely rare.

Dsiney Pixar Looks like they are coming out with a good Documentry called Planes , it is a follow up to their documentry cars. Also there used to be a series called Wings that gave you a good look into the workings of a small Nanatucket Airport.
