Another thumbs up for 633 Squadron. The Blue Max was rather good too as was Memphis Belle.

Pearl Harbour was a real lemon. Top Gun was total shyte if you ignore the excellent flying shots and a lifetime's worth of quotes that can be quite funny in the circuit at any local flying club.

D.A.W., was the designation "B" for B-17 totally correct as I recall it was originally a maritime patrol aircraft before being converted to a medium bomber ? The excellent Catalina had a PBY designation hence the question.
