"Just as advertised" isn't always so. This purchase was "as advertised." Got it within a reasonable time frame, in good condition, without a hitch. So far, I've never had a bad purchase with Amazon.com. Thanks. ...

The motion picture "Air Force" was released in February 1943 by Warner Brothers. It is worth getting hold of!
The film, which obviously had been written by someone with access to the records of the 19th Bomb Group, which had been originally based at ...

Nothing super-special on the DVD, just a few cartoons. Now, the movie. In true Howard Hawks fashion, you see how professionals do their jobs - in this case, it's how it takes a dozen men to keep a Flying Fortress flying and fighting. I won't give away ...

On their way to Pearl Harbor, a flight of B-17 bombers arrive at the height of the Japanese attack at the start of WW2. After landing they are told to refuel and fly on to the Philippines where they are to fight the Japanese. Many problems ensue but the ...
