It’s December 13th 1943 and 2nd Lt Philip R. Adair is in the skies over Assam. The alert was sounded and he’s first Burma Banshee in the air. Flying Lulubelle his beloved P-40 he sees in the distance what looks like a flight of 4 planes. Adair is on his own as the rest of the Burma Banshees are still taking off…but he doesn’t hang around and he goes for a closer look.
It’s a force of over 60 planes consisting of both bombers and fighters and it's headed straight for his home base. What can one man do against 60 enemies? Adair makes the incredibly brave decision to engage the force alone. With original testimony from Adair and photos from the battle, we recreate this epic and little known moment in history.

Man! This story is something else! First, it was nice to hear the person himself narrating what happened. Secondly, the choice of heavy metal music totally matches his attitude. This guy was CRAZY! I can really say this much! HE WAS CRAZY. Every decision making he did was beyond courageous but insanity! 1 vs 64, got lucky first time out, got back at it again? What? And he still got it out alive... and what? He went to chase after the smoking zero with his trim all wrong? What was he expecting? Could he still hit something with that kind of malfunctioning control surface? Then of course he was out of ammo and was hit again, but he got it out alive again! Then what? He flipped his plane upside down again and again to stay airborne..... but he EVEN landed that way by flipping! He got the skill! He got the guts.... and he got the craziness! That's totally beyond rational thinking you see. Thanks again for preserving history, and sharing such incredible crazy story of one skillful courageous and insane aviator!

@@linux4425 Yeah, in the past, wreckages of WW-II aircraft were recovered from North East India. One of the recent discoveries was the human remains from the wreckage of a B24 bomber, nicknamed Hot as Hell that crashed in a remote corner of Arunachal Pradesh in January 1944. While the site was identified in 2006, the human remains were recovered only in 2016. Despite the risks, flying over the Hump was necessary during the WW-II as the Allied Forces were building an aero-bridge to maintain the supply line for the Chinese war effort of Chiang Kai-shek and the units of the United States Army Air Forces based in China. According to one estimate, more than 1,300 US veterans were lost in the China-Burma-India theatre. In recent years, several crash sites were located in Assam, Nagaland, and Tripura states of India.

I think serious or even try hard in dc-10 or war thunder simulation mode could make a cockpit and put themself irl mood, would be stressful tho. It's like a simulation exam for pilot using navy or commercial airways cockpit simulation machine.

I've seen hundreds of pictures over the years and even built a scale model of this plane and its distinctive skull emblazoned on it's nose. I had never heard the story of it's pilot. What a legend. From singlehandedly taking on an entire bomber formation, to pulling a negative-G barrel roll that would have knocked out/disoriented your average pilot, trolling a damaged enemy fighter plane when he was out of ammo, then flying home inverted because his elevator trim was stuck in the downward setting, this guy could do it all. The heavy metal background music was a great addition. It honestly got a laugh out of me while that was playing and he's just lazily flying inverted.
