Created by the U.S. military to quickly train the hundreds of crews needed these instructional films put you into the cockpit of these storied aircraft for over 31/2 hours. When America entered WWII in 1941 the fighter aircraft of the U.S. were mired in 1930's technology. Lacking range and firepower the American planes were not able to adequately protect Allied bombers; while Japan and Germany had developed superior war planes which gave them a tremendous edge in air-to-air combat. In a game of catch-up America rushed new aircraft designs into production to meet the challenge. Developed during the war new aircraft platforms improved America's ability to take the fight to the enemy allowing Allied bombers to strike deep into enemy territory. Disc One of Flight Check-Fighters describes the training for the Lockheed Lightning the Bell Airacobra and the Curtiss Warhawk three of the most legendary American fighters. Each film provides detailed instruction for pilots and crew in their operation air-to-air techniques emergency procedures and maintenance. As WWII progressed the Allies stepped up their bombing campaign against the German homeland and the outlying islands of the Japanese Empire. Longer range bombers required long range fighter escort as well as superior air-to-air capability in order to reign supreme in the skies. Again American engineering and industrial might proved stronger than her enemies as more sophisticated fighter aircraft rolled off the assembly lines manned by well-trained pilots and crewmen. In Disc Two of Flight Check-Fighters you will fly the famous Republic P-47 Thunderbolt and the legendary Northrop P-61 Black Widow. In addition you will learn what it was like to fly the world's first military jet fighter the German ME-262.
