[quote="STUKA"]which Avengers?[/qu\ote]

Just the atlantic ones. Sorry, didnt want people to think the lost squadron ones were at Walmart.

What's funny is I was watching Close Encounters of the Third Kind yesterday and the aliens did return the pilots from Flight 19. :D It was the "cameos" of the Flight 19 planes and crew that brought the memory of the lost flight and all the theories for its disappearance back into the public conscio...

Is there any word or whispers about a George Bush version yet?
I am holding off buying this one just for that reason.
