Product description:
Amazing True Stories
If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to fly a WWII aircraft, these DVDs are for you. Each one takes you from startup to shutdown and through white knuckle flights of WWII combat.
Strap in for preflight and start-up of the legendary B-17 Flying Fortress. Experience the 1500 horsepower of a Rolls Royce Merlin engine with the P-51 Mustang. Warbird pilot Steve Hinton relives "Pappy" Boyington's adventures flying the Marines' F4U Corsair. Go on a journey back to the incredible days following Pearl Harbor in a P-40 Warhawk.
Aboard the P-38 Lightning, join WWII Warbird pilot Jeff Ethell in this twin-engine interceptor. The P-47 Thunderbolt finds Ethell back in control, from preflight check-out to full flight as he simulates dives, rolls, and dogfights. Doolittle’s Raiders lifted off the aircraft carrier Hornet and lifted the morale of every American on the B-25 Mitchell. More thrills are in order with Steve Hinton aboard the U. S. Navy's TBM Avenger and Grumman F6F Hellcat, and Japan's fabled A6M5 Zero. All have loads of bonus features.

Pros
ten seconds of footage with a p-47 in flight.
Cons
only goes through abut 50% of what it REALLY take's to fly a Corsair.
General Comments
STEVE HINTON COULDN'T ACT MORE ARROGANT, IGNORANT, OR BOARD WITH THE FILMING OF THIS AIRCRAFT. A 12 YEAR OLD COULD HAVE OFFERED MORE PROFESSIONALISM, EDUCATION, AND ENTHUSASIAM. A DISAPOINTMENT TO ANYONE LOOKING TO ACTUALLY FLY A CORSAIR.
