Night Fighters Episode


Anyone know if this episode aired?

My tivo recorded when it was supposed to be on but it was another show. A rerun seems to have dissapeared from the schedule as well.

I thought it was suppose to be aired this Thursday but tv guide said it aired last thursday, which is a mistake since last thursday they aired something completely different.

As far as I can tell from my DVR, it's not airing this Thursday either, or any other time this week.

I noticed this too, and it really chaps my ass that History Channel keeps juggling the air date around. It seems to have started around the time "First Dogfights of WWI" supposidly aired, when my Digital Cable said it'd be on at its usual time on Friday but instead Human Weapon was on.

Thankfully I've been able to catch new episodes on Thursdays (even though my Digital Cable lists them as "repeat") but the Night Battles episode has been skipped over and it looks like "The Bloodiest Day" is supposed to air tonight.

I hope History Channel gets its crap together and doesn't cancel the show due to low ratings (how are we supposed to see it if we don't know when it's on?!)

According to my local newspaper and MSN's online TV guide, the Night Fighters episode is scheduled to air Friday, September 21 @ 11:00PM E.T.; repeating on Saturday, September 22 @ 3:00AM.

Let's hope so, becasue that episode of Bloodiest Battles did NOT air last night, even though the info on my Digital Cable said it would.

If the Night Fights epsiode (or no episode of Dogfight period) doesn't air I may have to send a severed horse head to the History Channel execs. Maybe then the'd get the message

Nah, they'd just use it as a prop in a documentary about the Romans or something along those lines...

My cable did the same thing. No "Bloodiest Battles" last night. Even when the show that was on instead was running, the "info" still had it as "Dogfights"...

Did it air on Friday?

I didn't watch it because I thought they wouldn't air it

The Night Fighters episode aired last Wedensday at 11pm, as I recall. The encounters included a Hellcat raid in the Pacific, a P-61 kill in Europe, and two kills by F-15's in Serbia. I was hoping to see something about the German night fighters over Europe, but this show has only once had foreign pilots on.

There is no telling when this show will air...It did not show at all this week.
