    For the record, Quinn didn't get caught because he didn't know how to write the date correctly. Him writing the date "incorrectly" was why he survived. They shoot one of the three men, and in a quick cut you see that man wrote the date the European way, revealing him to be a German spy.

    • @ChienaAvtzon
      @ChienaAvtzon 9 месяцев назад +3

      “Masters of the Air” would have been a much stronger miniseries, had it just focused on Rosie Rosenthal and Crosby.
      I understand wanting to tell the backstory of how and why the Munster raid ended up being such a disaster for the 100th, especially since that mission was what led to Rosie becoming a living legend. It is just Cleven and Egan really were only supporting characters to that history, and probably should have been treated as such in the series. Apart from Cleven’s escape, there was not much of a compelling story and Egan is basically a composite character. He existed but almost everything the audience sees is transposed onto him from other airmen. Whereas, everything with Rosie and Crosby (apart from Operation Chowhound) is a dramatization of events that happened to them.

    My great uncle finished his 25 missions and this particular mission he wrote about was very interesting. ""Our first mission on my return from leave was a tough one. There were many flak guns guarding the target and several German fighter airfields near our route to the target. For this mission there would be a full colonel for division flying in my position. Out squadron will be flying group lead. In this position our plane is equiped with Mickey, a through the clouds bombsight. The target is Nuremberg. "

    4:06 no? He was never grounded in the first place. He was promoted to group navigator(because he was good, not airsick), but he still flew from time to time. In his book he says that his airsickness partly went away when he was in the lead due to the stress, even though he still suffered from it, especially on low altitude missions.

    In late 1943, the average life expectancy of a B-17 crew in World War II was 11 missions
    . The average age of a B-17 crew member was under 25, and their chances of survival on a mission were less than 50%.
    The crews faced many dangers, including:
    Anti-aircraft fire: Also known as flak, this was a constant threat in Holland, Belgium, France, and Germany.
    Fighter aircraft: In the first two years of the war, bombers had limited fighter escorts.
    Altitude: The lower pressures at high altitudes were a danger to the crew.
    Other factors: Frostbite, lack of oxygen, parachutes, escape hatches, fire, and out of control aircraft were all potential dangers.
    The introduction of the P-51 Mustang in January 1944 provided much-needed fighter support for deep penetration raids into Germany

    My grandad was a Tuskegee airman and I’m honest they did the Tuskegee airmen an injustice. I think that because they advertised them to be in the show and it was not how me or most people, who were excited for them to be featured in it, wanted them to be featured in it. I was expecting their story to be told as a whole, not them in a POW camp. Aside from that is was a decent show, although a bit rushed in a few categories.

    My problem was there were too many characters!!
    Was kinda hard to keep track of all of them, especially since some of them disappear from the show unceremoniously.
    Ex. That baby faced kid that gets shot down behind enemy lines early on in the show. They make a bit deal of it until he gets smuggled out and then we never hear from him again.

    I did love this show but it’s certainly the weakest out of the Spielberg and Hanks trilogy.
    My biggest issue was how unfocused the plot was. If you’re going to have a mini series then it needs to focus on one cohesive plot or set of characters. It’s the same reason audiences didn’t respond to the Pacific as well as Band of Brothers.
    Overall it’s still worth the watch but I have no doubt in my mind that Apple TV killed this show with the limited budget. Had HBO made it probably would’ve been significantly better.
