New New Tuskegee movie "Red Tails" by George Lucas
WOW!! Great pics!! Thank you for the link. My hopes are pretty high on this movie.

What is your favorite aircraft of all time?
I think I've got go with the Spitfire...It close though with the P-51D. If it wasn't for the Spit's Merlin the P51 would not have been the plane that it was. And, the Spits held the tide and continued into the Korean War (Seafires) But its a close one.....P-51's are beautiful!- Spitfire41
