Bridge of Spies was really good. Kinda made the Air Force U-2 pilots look like buffons, but the rest of the movie was superb.
Had the required Colt Detective Specials and some really cool shots of M-1Ds.

Haven't seen the movie, but weren't early U-2 pilots CIA?

This is a bit of a reach. But then again, buried in the article, an Expendables TV series?

They were Air Force pilots on contract to the CIA. They were civvies while in Pakistan and un-adorned pressure suits, but were drawing their pay from the USAF.

On an unrelated note, am I the only one upset by the fact that the new Terminator movie's opening sequence essentially just retconned the entirety of Salvation completely out of existence with no explanation given?

I don't think they were Air Force pilots as this was too accountable. Instead they recruited retired pilots or from the USAF reserve (reserve officers could resign their commission more easily). A number of early U2 pilots were also actually British RAF officers. They were paid by MI6 and posed as Meteorological Office employees but were still commissioned officers in the RAF. They were stationed in Turkey and I believe that most of their missions were over the Middle East, but at least 2 (possibly up to 4) of the 24 U2 overflights of the USSR were conducted by RAF pilots.

I wasn't upset per say; but I was kinda bummed that this movie makes it official that we aren't getting the trilogy based on Salvation with Christian Bale as John Connor. I enjoyed the movie okay; but damn, I really want to see TechComm fight the evil robots in the future with some damn plasma rifles, okay?

I didn't really like the first one, but this looks like it might have potential.
