I'm very excited about this movie, although I'm pretty scared they'll mess it up with over-use of CGI (ahem, the Star Wars prequels...). At least Sam Jackson is the director so I hope there'll be a good story and presentation of the men of the 332nd and more real aearial shots.

But I hope they don't mess too much with Axis pilots. Either making them geneticaly enchanced super-evil pilots or completely encapable, half-blind ones... :roll:

I just hope it is historically accurate regarding their perfect record. The group's historian has publicly stated the claim of having "never lost a bomber" turned out to be false after extensive research. Even without perfection, their record is absolutely stellar and as good or better than any other fighter group.

As the historian, a former airman, stated: "the Tuskegee story is about pilots who rose above adversity and discrimination and opened a door once closed to black America

That would be nice to know. Maybe it's cheaper to make new replicas (taking insurance into account) than it is to "rent" the highly valuable flying museum piece?
