New show coming on here on either the History

[Torch]

channel or the Military channel,didn't catch it but it's supposed to take existing war planes and recreate actuall dog fights. Looks like it might be a pretty good show..

I just caught part of the ad for it as I was channel-surfing. it's called, "Show Down: Air Combat (Or something close) and it's coming out in June on the military channel. There was a beautiful live-action shot of a P-38 and a Zero (I think...I was too busy ogling the Lightning ) The shot was modern, not old footage.

Here's a link to some better info:

Sounds like it should be a good one

Sure. At least with my digital cable package...It's the US one and frankly, it's mostly repetitive sh*te, although there is the occasional gem in the dung heap.

PS: I'm in Nova Scotia

Depends where you are I guess.... I only have the History Discovery etc.

Same. I'll have to look into it. I don't know if it's available in Alberta.
