History Channel Dogfights

If any of you guys got cable and have the History Channel check out the series Dogfights. Last night I watched the Sonderkommando ELBE ram their Bf-109s into American Bombers and a gunfight between F-4 Phantoms and North Vietnamese MiG-17s. Cool CG stuff. Think I'll get the DVD when it's out.

Yeah, A tremendous show.

I have recorded all of them using Sky Plus and have worked my way through the lot........The Pacific stuff is of particular interest....some great insightful recreations and facinating reminices from the old pilots........the show needs more balance though....all US and Israeli interviews.....

I recommend it to anyone. There are loads of clips on UTube

I didn't know it was on UTube. Better check it out. I'm going to buy the 1st season on DVD. As for balance, well they did have interviews with ex-Luftwaffe pilots from the special ramming units.
