"You're in the cockpit"...................November 21, 2008 Those words fit this series perfectly. The CGI in these stories is really amazing : at times, you can't tell the difference between the computer view and what it would look like peering through the canopy yourself. The current interviews with the men who were involved with these various actions adds immensley to the telling of these tales. Anyone interested in military aviation or military history........BUY IT!!!!!!!!
DogfightsOctober 9, 2008 This is an excellant documentary style representation of airplane fights during several wars from WWI to the Gulf War. It disects the confrontations between each aircraft, showing several defensive tactics while using computer generated images as well as actual combat footage. It is well worth the purchase.
compellingOctober 7, 2008 My 6 year old son can't get enough of this series! The visuals are stunning and the stories are gripping. We have exhausted all the books on this subject in our local libraries and my husband is mapping out our future vacations according to all the aircraft museum locations on the eastern seaboard. We are looking forward to season 3.

FInally something for the whole family. THe Kids will enjoy the action, violence and computer graphics. Mother's will salivate at the aged photographs of handsome young men; knights of a modern age dueling for some greater cause than themselves. Father's will focus on the strategy and the individual specs of the planes all done in the instantly intuitive style of a video game game player select screen. And finally Grandpa War Veteran will shake violently at the mere color imagery of Stukas and Zeros coming at the screen, the first color images of these aircraft in blazing combat maneuvers that have ever been by seen like this since the actual war..
It's got all the elements, drama, historical accuracy coupled with the slick educational value to anyone who ever wondered about the aerial dogfights of long ago. The only educational movie series I have ever watched and enjoyed since the future is wild or alien planet.
