Actually both 633 Squadron and Dam Busters inspired George Lucas, I think I remember he admitting it in one of the interviews shortly after his first film. Anybody who saw both films immediately saw the connection.

Oh, man, this is just beyond perfection. Great editing.
I was kinda waiting for an inevitable "stay on target...stay on target..." sequence, though.

"I just lost my starboard engine" -> it's the left wing that's on fire
-
It seems Mr. Lucas borrowed several ideass from several movies not only this one.
-
Those "fighters" are actually Me108s NOT 109s. The Me108 was a 4 seater liason plane; I know because I've flown one!

''didnt go in ,it just impacted on the surface'' i think Lucas was copying his sex life really

Just really cute. Flying that mission must have been like being a clay target at a trap range.

I thought the dam busters were Lancaster bombers, not Mosquitoes.

@StrigonLead Its not the Dambusters- this one was a fictional war movie

That is a pretty good analysis. Was this inspired by Henryvkeiper when he made Star wars/Battle of Britain and Star Wars/Dambusters?

@Trashcansam123 actually i made this before I saw the Keiper one. I think its clear Lucas borrowed heavily from both

I am a big fan of 633 squadron - iit has been my favourite (or one of my three favourites anyway) since I was a kid. Recently I actually sent some questions to Cliff Robertson (who plays the lead: Roy Grant) about the film and he has replied. I can't put a link on here because youtube appears not to appreciate that even though I am a real fan and its just more information. Anyway just search for Cliff Robertson Questionnaire or Lazlo Ferran's blog which is run by google too.
