Waiting for Dublin Movie

Thu Jul 30, 2009 12:42 am

Just saw the movie Waiting for Dublin with it's German marked P-40. The movies producers must still think people don't know the difference between a real German aircraft and a fake one. Oh well!

I suspect it was an economical decision based on the availability and cost of getting a flying P-40 vs. an 109 or 190.

And yes, Hollywood doesn't care, most people are ignorant when it comes to details such as that.

I see no mention of the T-6 "fighter plane" I see in various online photos from the movie? :shock:
The review I found was quite scathing indeed: http://www.boston.com/ae/movies/articles/2009/03/13/waiting_for_dublin/
