For those of you who don't really like him -- flying a spitfire can be really dicing with death. (I hoping that does NOT happen! I don't mind the guy ... :) )

"Pitt is described as an "accomplished pilot" who has owned and flown many aircraft types."

Of course that doesn't mean that can fly in FS2004 or FSX. :D

It must be one of those perks for being a "hunky" actor. Tom Cruise owns a Mustang, Pitt bought a Spit (no pun intended), Harrison Ford owns a Beaver etc ...... I guess thats why I only have a 172. :roll:
