WTF? The last sentence in the "Plot" section is openly an American POV. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.121.24.4 (talk) 22:07, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Huh? Do you mean this line? "The actual Air Traffic Control system at Templehof is portrayed in the film, permitting the viewer to vicariously experience the frustration experienced by both controllers and aircrews during missions, including being buzzed by Soviet fighters while in formation." If that is the line that you are referring to, are you complaining about it, or are you merely pointing it out to the reader? If the former, what are you complaining about and if the latter, thanks for pointing out its existance, but I was able to see it without any help. If you are complaining, what exactly about it makes it seem like it is an American POV? I'm American myself, but I don't see it as explictly an American POV. Maybe it is meant to be the POV of someone who enjoys being inside air traffic control towers. I got to visit the one at Tinker AFB when I was a boy of 12 or so, and so when I read that line, to me, it felt like someone was enjoying the scene in the movie for what it was or is. Are Americans of any type the only people able to enjoy such a scene? Hmm. Then again maybe your statement is in reference to something deleted before I was able to read the article. But still... is there meant to be something wrong about an American POV in the first place? Is this a political article of the kind that is meant to be neutral in tone? If so, it still comes across as neutral to me. I don't perceive the perceived problem that you do, so please help me see it too, thank you very much.

Original names of characters

Shouldn't the woman's first name be quoted as Friederike instead of Frederica? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.227.82.108 (talk) 19:56, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
