A short post war video about Romanian 1st Air Corps in action after 23 August 1944 when the country switched sides and began fighting against Germany; you could see Me-109G, Ju-87 Stuka, Hs-129, He-111, Ju-88, JU-52 in romanian colors. Also, modified Savoia Marchetti 79 and romanian built IAR-80/81 and IAR-39 (biplane) are shown. The IAR-80/81 was sometimes erroneously identified by allied fighters as FW-190.

Has anyone ever watched that B&W WW1 documentary series with veterans that can be found on Youtube? I found it fascinating. Can post some links if want. Downloading most of them to keep for later years.
Agree Caruso.. World At War set the bar and Laurence Olivier (spelling( as the narrator was the most fabulous ever done to me. So many famous military people were still around.
The one part I recall the most, was when the narrator asked Mark Clark about his Anzio fiasco and it seemed to catch him off guard.. Later on in that same episode? One of Kesselring's generals (I forget who) was on the same episode saying the exact opposite. The funniest episode if that can be said of a documentary like that where human lives are thrown away.
