Part I: Flying the P-47 Strap in and get set! This rare World War II pursuit fighter has been fully restored: panel, paint, guns and ammo belts. Warbird pilot Jeff Ethell gives you your preflight checkout - but you do the flying - in your own home theater. It's all new footage, complete with digitally-recorded Dolby Surround sound. Dive, roll and dogfight your way to victory, powered by a 2,300 horsepower Pratt & Whitney engine. Part II: The Young Pilots Fighter pilots were kids fresh out of high school. An 18 year old believed he could dive into a swarm of enemy planes and come out an ace! When reality struck, it was always a life and death challenge in the skies. Gil Burns was too low to bail, with his flight controls shot out over Germany. Wally Montague's engine was coming apart fast, so he jumped into the Pacific, only to have his chute fail to open! Both true stories give us a truly personal and thrilling view of combat in the P-47 during world War II.
