Also, if you can find it, on the old Discovery Channel (US Cable) show from the '90s "Wings", they did an episode about the Ju88 that used the Romanian one for renectemnt and interior footage.

I think that was the first plane I ever saw with a Mihai Cross. Obviously it was love at first sight. cool.gif
