The Worst Aviation Movie of All Time

For the number of technical errors in a movie that PRETENDS TO BE
HISTORY, "Midway" is a strong contender!

The account of the battle, so far as I know, is accurate, but the
flying scenes are riddled with errors.

The errors are due, I believe, to the complete lack of any new flying scenes
shot for the movie. All the action scenes are from actual footage or other
movies. Hence, they don't match the real case very often, and you'll see a
character's plane magically change markings or even types.

Yes, that's exactly what I was referring to, Ron. But surely the
makers of that movie could have found more accurate had they made the
effort. I blame it on (a) ignorance or (b) arrogance.
