2) Pilot chatter between fighter aircraft on patrol,
3) Pilot chatter while engaging bombers, engaging fighters, etc.,
4) Landing pattern traffic: landing / take-off chatter with the tower.
Are there transcripts of any of this?? I need some AUTHENTIC traffic!
Anyone? Thank you again for everyone's assistance.

PS: You see where I'm going with this? Remember how UTTERLY INANE and STUPID the cockpit/combat dialog was in Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor? Did the cockpit dialog in Red-Tails impress anyone?
PSS: I also need this for 8th Air Force B-17's on a mission, including a bomb run and escort fighters.

I would hazard to say that most people see war movies as nothing but entertainment. I recall watching a war movie where non-German tanks were given German markings, and presented as regular German tanks.
