For such a small fighter, 1/32nd scale would allow for much more detail.

Amen to that! I did have the 32nd scale kit of the Komet from Hasegawa at one point but sold it!

I remember making that kit many years back, and it was a good one too. Diecast model of this aircraft wood seem to make for a good selling model too.
 

Brewster Buffalo, Hawk 75A, Fokker D.XXI, Polikarpov I-16, Fiat G.50, Macchi C. 200, PZL P.11c, Fieseler Fi 156 Storch ,,,, now those are real planes.

You do have DVD players over there, though, right?

Yes indeed but unfortunately Us DVDs dont play in Europe.

I do have over 100 videos of planes and a few DVDs to keep me happy.
 

God Bless America.

Other than using IJN pilots to guide them - how does the Kiaten segment have anything to do with Dogfights - I am at a loss...

Why not show something about the V-1 and how RAF pilots brought them down. That would have been cool to see!

Too bad this series is ending...so many great stories left untold.

The Kaiten segment may have been a stretch but I really liked it. It should've been included in the Battle 360 instead!

I fully agree that RAF versus V-1s would be a terrific segment to include as there were a variety of warbirds used (late Mk Spitfires, Typhoons and Tempest, P-51B/C etc.) that
would make for very interesting story arcs for the Dogfights series.
