The History Channel Dogfights Flying Tigers PDTV XviD-FTP
Before the United States entered the second world war, a group of courageous American pilots known as the Flying Tigers took on the overwhelming might of the imperial Japanese air force. These high-flying soldiers of fortune raked through the skies of the far east – helping to stop Japan’s march across China. Their fame soon spread, and tales of their exploits read like something out of an adventure novel. Using state-of-the-art computer graphics (looks like 2007 technology this time 
) we put you in the cockpit, of the dogged American P4 Tomahawk as it takes on the agile Japanese KI-27 Nate. Experience the battle, and examine the tactics, as we re-enact the dogfights. This documentary seems awesome – it’s as if you’re fully immersed in a flight-sim video game with the latest graphics technology and with the quality settings cranked to full. There also appears to be a problem, I think that the resolution was supposed to be 624×352, but instead it was put to 512×302 and they also forgot to crop a few pix at the top where there is a black bar remaining. FTP also goofed on their NFO resolution, erroneously stating a resolution of 512×384 instead of the actual 512×304.

THX Mister for the Docs. Needed them like fresh air
Michael Vick would love this one.
This is a totally awesome series! When there’s not much else on TV, I can also find entertainment in catching up on dog fights.
Hey Mr. X do you know where I might find the entire dogfight series?
thanks, I’ve been waiting for this one. Do you know where I can get that pet grooming reality show?
Nmd. For anybody who wants the full season check out

You need to register for the tracker however.
I have heard only great things of this series. The MIG Alley episode is supposed to pwn.
Like the rest of you, I enjoy these recreations. Imagine what it’s like to be an AVG survivor (there are five pilots still alive who flew the Tomahawk in combat against the Japanese) and see your first mission live again in full color!
It’s a pity, though, that the History Channel didn’t delve a bit into the actual events. At Mae Sot on January 3, the Tigers were credited with destroying four Japanese planes on the ground and three in the air (two for Jack Newkirk, one for Tex Hill). Actual damage: two Nakajima “Nates” damaged on the ground and one shot down. (The pilot was Warrant Officer Yokoyama, who would need two months to recover from his wounds.) This level of over-optimism was typical of western air forces during WWII.
