Default Good news!

The film has arrived safely and I have just had it transferred at broadcast quality.
It's a propaganda film (no surprise) called Backfire and it runs about 10 minutes. There is quite a lot of CMP action, including F15As and Carriers being built and doing incredible jumps (read very bad for the vehicle and scary jumps), shots of F60Ls doing skidding broadside stops to block roads, construction of engines and vehicle assembly, including carriers, lots of nice FGT footage including winching.
The storyline is naturally dated but typical of the era, deriding the enemy at every opportunity.
CMPs shown are all cab 13s.

I will also make NTSC DVDs, and they should be available from next week.
Price will be $20 per DVD and I will also include some silent but fantastic footage showing a cab 12 being taken out of it's packing case and being assembled - there will possibly also be some FGT No 3A (Aust) action in it too.

Please PM me with your details to order copies.

I'll put some short clips online in due course.
