Hi Bob
Yes mate, I too enjoyed the film and I agree there was some poetic licence in making the film. But then it was made by the movie company as a a training film. I would like to see the "out takes" before the finished film was released to the troops. I noted that at one time there when they were cranking the inertia starter the guy who had his back to prop, turned his head and had a bit of a worried look at the prop as it fired up. Still a well thought up blow by blow instruction manual for the boys in the field, that is if everything worked out to plan by following the instructions. I am sure the movie makers took some time to make the film and I bet they had a few hic cups before the finished product. ![]() Cheers Tony ![]()

Great clip
![]() Was also interesting watching an associated clip of the germans stealth fighter the Horton 229 and how it performed under modern tests http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaJzKjtjZnY By the american modern testers it would have been an extremly dangerous and game changing event if they had of swung it in to production earlier in the war A flying semi stealth jet wing a minimum 30 years before anyone else was taking the design seriously
