So those dropped early! Refreshing the page every 20 minutes paid off!

Pretty solid so far for the action stuff, especially the technical details around flying. All of the bombing runs felt very real and immediate.

Curt's probably my favourite so far, though I'm having trouble telling the guys apart, as usual. The masks are not helping! I hope we get more with Lemmons and the cute kids.

I'm finding the plots and characterisation a little thin, but hopefully they're just setting things up. (The I don't gamble because of my dad monologue felt a little obvious.)

The shipping situation has potential. Gale/John obviously, and Curt/John, and Bubbles/Crosby.

No woman has yet gotten a first and last name. Though I ship the Peggy/Marge situation from the opening scene.

I did find having an opening scene to establish that the co-dependant pilots who have managed to name themselves after each other do in fact like girls a bit much, especially with all the homophobic comments from the RAF pilots. Queer content zero, so far.
