Early Access: ITC - SBD Dauntless
Added 2024-06-05 18:49:11 +0000 UTCI released this video into early access some time ago yet as it launches for a public take-off tomorrow, I thought I'd share it again ahead of time for you. Join me as I jump inside the famous SBD dive bomber that turned the tide in the Pacific!
Big thank you to you as a crowdfunders for having made this filming trip possible. I also appreciate CAF Airbase Georgia for giving me access to their machine, check out their website to see learn where you could see this aircraft next: https://airbasegeorgia.org/

Terrific tour, thank you. The SDB always struck me as an efficient, form-follows-function design. No frills, just whatever contributed to an effective , functional, deadly carrier-based dive bomber. When the designers were done, they had an SBD! The CAF's example is a beauty. And the Mustang is looking good too!

What I did not know was that pilot bombing window. The navigation table for the "mo" board. Now that is something I like to have a class on "mo board".
