Just watched, end was a tadge cheesy but by standards of other aviation based movies, not bad. Hope in reality they inserted the seat pins before rescuing him
Oh come on Wander00, be honest, it was a load of old tosh from beginning to end, although admittedly it was enjoyable tosh. I noticed the pins too, but if you had been making notes of errors you would be have been well down the second page of your A4 pad by then. The pilot failing to recover from hypoxia after several minutes (never mind several seconds) at low level was a classic one.

Great Hunter shots though. I can never make up my mind if the Hunter or the Victor B1 was the most elegant post war RAF aircraft - Hunter by a short head I think.

Oh and Mrs TTN put her book down and said she enjoyed the film.
