I've been watching the series "Air Aces" (an excellent series) on the Military Channel, and it also runs on the History Channel.
On a couple of the episodes, I've seen Aces High ads. They are good, and those of you who have been wishing for Aces High ads now have your wish. :aok
Preview of one of the episodes:

I haven't been able to find a link to the ad itself yet. Maybe Skuzzy can post a link here if there is a clip of it on Youtube.

Is there any source to claim George Beurling's kill claims? I remember reading he exaggerated his kills, if so wonder why they use him in the show?

Looked around a bit to see if I could find the AH ad and didn't have any luck, however a Google Image search did turn up one thing that made me laugh.........

After I thought about it, linking to or tagging some of the outstanding videos that have been made by players may be an excellent (and inexpensive) advertisement in of itself as long as the makers were in agreement with the idea.

The show covers an example where he claimed to have shot down a plane but gun cam showed no plane. Beurling thought it was because there was so much lead that the plane didn't who up in the frame, but others didn't believe him. That was one of the events that caused him to volunteer for service on Malta. It seemed like the RAF used gun cams to verify kills. If so, it would be hard to exaggerate kills. For example, another time, Beurling shot down at 109 at a range of about 800 yards, and folks believed it only because of the camera footage, according to the show.
