Strange coincidence

[R Pope]

In the cheapie basket at the supermarket I found a DVD of "Hell's Angels" and brought it home. Hadn't seen it in a dog's age. Then, a day later, I rented "Flyboys".
Is it just me, or did Howie H come back to life to make this movie? Same death dive into the Zepp, same vendetta against the black Fokker, same bombing run on the ammo dump....Slightly different lame love story, and even less attention paid to historic accuracy, but then we are talking Hollywood here, so that doesn't matter, I guess.
Computer generated special effects and all notwithstanding, I prefer the original.
