The logistics of getting real aircraft for a new version of TBoB means it will have to be CGI
I'm thinking that we can do this with existing aircraft available now. Remember, 99% of the general population of movie goers can't tell between a Spitfire and a Mustang or a Lancaster and DC-4.

My first challenge is to find a He-111 equivalent. Best I've come up with so far is some sort of Tora Tora Tora dice and slice with the DC-3...



Whatdoyathink?

Next challenge is the Dornier Do-17. But I have an idea...

Not sure how many IA-35s Argentina has left, but I'm sure they'll sell...?



Next challenge, fighters.
fighters.
These are going to looked at very closely by the "rivet counters" in the audience so I suggest we go for full scale kitplanes. At 7,000 hours construction time per "plane" we need to start building now...and to hell with the expense!
