Thanks for posting this Ispintechno1. I could listen to those vetrans all day long. Good footage, too. They could have chosen a better 'expert' though. Bruning is talking horse.'Finger four was taught to, not developed by, the USAAC. No shame there, their training was better and they had more hours on type than typical European pilots. Their willingness to adopt the best practice and latest tactics is commendable. Try Jonnie Johnsons Wing Leader for a much better description of finger four.
