What plane is shown in background at 1:39 ????????

Interesting flying boats... However, overall, gotta say that WW II didn't do any of us in Europe any good. Wasted huge amounts of resources, sacrificed a great number of human beings, and for what? We now have what would have been had the Germans won anyway.

@porty500 I stand by my words.

What a pile of rubbish.
The 26th fighter wing (Jg26) under the command of Hpt Joachim Müncheberg was one of the most feared and respected fighter wings of the luftwaffe, claiming 52 victories to no loss of its own in the Maltese conflict. Later in the war they became known as the 'Abbeville boys' by the allies such was thier reputation as flyers.
At no point in thier entire history did they shoot a parachuting pilot.
And as history shows, that was an American tactic.

Germans were real cocksuckers then.1 poor man bailed out of his destroyed plane at over 10,000 feet and a damned german pilot shot the parachute he was hanging from with a heavy machine gun blast.Poor soul fell over 10,000 feet to his death.I hope that pilot is turning on a spit in hell.This was witnessed by many on the ground,including children.

Please note this his in not western europe, it is the mediterranean and therefore there were no american B-17's to fly sorties against. Also note that this is in an earlier stage of the war where the americans had not begin their bombing in europe which begun in 1943

You say I am trolling, you obviously dont know the History of Malta.
It was the most bombed place on earth, and the RAF held it with tiny amounts of planes vs the Luftwaffe and Italian air force.
You really need to learn your history. Buy a book on the siege of Malta...
