History Recap / YoungIndianaJonesAndTheAttackOfTheHawkmen

** That said, anyone familiar with the history of aviation in UsefulNotes/WorldWarI will note that said history also doesn't include the Germans developing a massive, multi-engined aircraft capable of bombing New York. Because Indiana Jones destroyed both the prototype and the factory where it was built, of course...

The third of four ''Young Indiana Jones'' TV movies produced between 1994 and 1996, made from what had originally been planned as episodes of the abortive third season of ''The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles''. First broadcast on 8th October 1995.

* RememberTheNewGuy: Hobey, one of the American pilots, knew Indy when he (Hobey) was a student at Princeton University — which the real Hobey Baker was, from 1910 to 1914. Somewhat downplayed, though, as we didn't see too much of Indy's youth in Princeton in the show.

February 1917: Having returned from Africa, Indy and Remy train to become spies. They quickly wangle a transfer from Belgian military intelligence to its better-organised French equivalent, following which Indy is assigned to be an aerial reconnaissance photographer. When his plane is shot down, Indy encounters the Red Baron himself, Manfred von Richthofen. After a daring escape, Indy is reassigned to a special mission — to go to Germany and convince aircraft designer Anthony Fokker to defect to France. While there, he discovers a new German superweapon.

* CallForward: This will not be the last time that Indiana Jones [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade gets shot at by Germans while in an aeroplane]] (although this time, he's not piloting it). Nor will it be the last time that [[Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk a secret German installation does not survive contact with Indiana Jones]] (although this time, bonus points for said secret installation being within Germany itself). There is also a nod to ''Last Crusade'' when Indy masquerades as a steward in the train restaurant car ... just while Fokker and the senor German officers he's with are talking about Zeppelins.

* CallBack: This isn't the first time Indy's been [[Recap/YoungIndianaJonesAndTheTrenchesOfHell taken prisoner by the Germans]], although this time he ''is'' an officer, not masquerading as one. He also mentions [[Recap/YoungIndianaJonesOgangaTheGiverAndTakerOfLife his encounter with Albert Schweiser]].

** During that next assignment, Charles Nungesser (who's flying Indy behind enemy lines) remarks that after the war, he's going to attempt to fly across the Atlantic. In RealLife, would disappear while attempting this in 1927, several weeks before Charles Linbergh succeeded in achieving this feat.
