TV Shows (2015 ?)
Chinese title: 東方戰場
International title: Eastern Battlefield
Please note that this page will relied on a video found on the web; it's a kind of BEST OF of this Series related to aviation action. But I'm unable to find data about actors (and so on) (I don't read Chinese).
NOTA : Despite great design, some awesome error could be noticed : missing pilot; take off without bombs then cruise flight with underfuselage war load; same instrument panel between the Northrop Gamma and the Curtiss Hawk; flipped image (code number reversed); turn by patrol are unealistic (outside wingman should be distanced or might cut the turn in order to keep the chase); onboard radio were quite rare in the thirties; Policarpov I-16 don't have autonomous starter (only the restored one but with a different engine of the original plane). This must not stop the enthusiast as most of these aircraft don't survive the decades and if yes, are not in flying condition.

Boeing 218 (Export variant of the P-12E) piloted by Robert Short during the Shangai incident (22 February 1932). This single aircraft damaged an ennemy but was itself hit and crashed to his death.

- Probably the most important error : I-16 don't have autonomous starter and need a special truck. Handling start is unsufficient for a 760 hp engine !
- But why some propeller are turning the right way (clockwise) and others the wrong one (starting scene) ?
Serial 2307 was not use by I-16s but worn by a Polikarpov I-152.
