DOGFIGHTS, P38 LIGHTNING VS ME 109 - The most amazing bloopers are here

The people that produce the series DOGFIGHTS on the HISTORY channel do a great job of weaving animation with real footage and narration to make an exciting recreation of the real thing. I was going to make a sexist comment about it being a boy thing, but I now know that women fly fighter jets off carriers, so the vicarious thrill of watching these films is enjoyed by both sexes.

(DISCLAIMER) The extraneous off color offerings that came with the Dogfight video are not of my choosing, but as all experienced internet users know, you sometimes have to take the bad to get the good. Sorry.

This is the promo for the series DOGFIGHTS, which in this case meant battles between warplanes, or ships. I am really taken with the series which is the reason I was interested in looking at the promo again, and maybe you will be also. Not only is it entertaining in a macabre sort of way, it is also educational. The computer geeks who put it all together make you feel like you're in that cockpit. It is really a splendid show, maybe a little macho and chest thumping, but whatever it's entertaining.

I discovered quite recently the show DOGFIGHTS on the History channel and want to recommend it to anyone who has an interest in flying or warfare in general. It combines great animation, film and still photos to make a greatly interesting half hour show. This clip is less than ten minutes.
