Flyboys Movie: the aircraft

Yes, I noted all your nitpicks also, but since practically
all movies today contain these same elements of inaccuracy
(idiocy?) I try to overlook them in the spirit of enjoying
the movie. It is hard not to be critical especially of the
historical ones though.

I'll even add one more nit... taking off in the dead of night
to go land in a field (dead stick even!) not once but twice
to rescue the girl and the children. I just don't see any
pilot of that era trying that with those aircraft in those
conditions.
