From what I understand the P51 Mustang in the trailer is Tom Cruises own P51. Though the name 'Kiss me Kate' may not apply anymore for obvious reasons.

It was only on my third run through of the original at the cinema that I picked up on the fact there was a plot beyond nailing Mig 28s

There are some other spoof trailers of the original movie that are very funny on you tube, I won`t put the links on here as some might be offended. Clue look for " Tarantino discusses it "

Apparently the new movie keeps CGI to a minimum, I`m not convinced by Tiny Tom.  ;D

An ex US Navy F-18 Hornet pilot`s take on the trailer, well worth a look and he points out what is CGI and what`s real. Interesting stuff.
