I had the honor of listening to one of these Tuskeegee Airmen speak at my squadron and let me tell you. Nothing that has happened in this AIR FORCE Since vietnam has been more heroic and downright humbling than what those pilots did in Europe.


I swear, reading this forum feels like a kick in the gut sometimes. You fools have NO idea what the GAME is all about. Or what kind of real men it took to go up and accomplish what so many before us have. You, nor I have ever seen war like these men did. And hell, Ive been shot at in Iraq.


Un-believable. Absolutly ZERO respect.

No, YOU are missing the point. If this movie gets the German paint schemes wrong it is actually a slap in the face to those airmen. Same goes for the flight models. Or the cloud algorithms. Or any other minor flaws we can find.
