Boeing B-17 Emergency Operations (Restored-1944)
B-17 Emergency Operations” is literally a "hot stove" session where veteran pilots give hands on advice on how to overcome some of their most challenging B-17 scenarios. You'll learn how to handle situations like, CG induced flight instability, stalls, emergency small field takeoffs & landings and a lot more. Plus there are animations, graphics and a dry sense of humor that make this one of the more enjoyable training films to come out of World War 2

Explained CG, stall recovery, aerodynamic principles, short distance takeoff procedures, and general emergency procedures far better than my ground school class did Imagine a modern flight school class being beaten by a WW2 training film
The "pilot's worst nightmare" sequence shows how some of the best of Hollywood worked on these movies.
all of these actors went to the School of Casual Stances
Excellent movie, I enjoyed very much, very instructive and didactical.
18:17 "Student Whitney didn't like it any better than I did; but, he doesn't scare easy."
Interesting, but I thought "emergency operations" in 1944 was bringing the bomber home with half a wing missing and a big hole in the vertical stabilizer.
Were these professional actors playing the part of aircrew or aircrew drafted in as actors?
It's crazy how thin everyone was back then before we invented high fructose corn syrup and twinkies.

They are from the army, of course they are thin. This doesnt make much sense.
"I'm not much on studying... books, I mean." I'd rather make it up as I go along.
Center of gravity right and proper trim on flying surfaces made it surprisingly light on controls. Of course wing fuel levels must be managed to maintain trim. A belly landed plane would be good for parts only. Simply not worth the risk to fly her again. Field repair a broken wing spar I don’t think so.
"CG induced flight instability" I hate that Computer Graphics induced flight instability in Dogfight documentaries...
"I guess the kid 'll do"...........lot's of "kids" went to war back then. Times were different.

It’s always that way...the young ones go, but then they age quickly.
I hope these are actors. Bad actors.

The idea was to really get the point across. This ham scripted acting and music, suitably illustrated, actually make it a much better learning experience than a dry lecture. Hollywood was very much part of Total War.
