Those weren't T-6s strafing in Kelly's Heroes but a Yugoslavian design similar to the 6 and using the same engine.

Currently watching "Resistance" (2003) on cable which starts with a very non-realistic B24 crash site. Way too neat and tidy.

In the "Band of Brothers" series, those P-51's, CGI or real? .... and how many "warbirds" were in the whole series? ... I bet you all get it wrong ... :wink:

If the 51s or 26s weren't real in Band of Brothers for the Market Garden scenes, they were great special effects. Definitely real C-47s in the D-Day take off, pretty sure they were real for Market Garden.

The 51's looked good, but their turn made them look fake! Must have been 10 G's toward the end as they unnaturally swing around to stay in the camera frame!
