Thank You, Archimedes! That makes sence (S 1 overboard for the film). It sure got my attention, but I always wondered about the far too good quality of the "shooting"
Take off picture.
As a Dutch F-104 pilot told me: "Then we retract the undercarriage and descent to operational altitude".
Laarbruch, 1977, to visit "Shiny Two" 's shiny new recce Jaguars. Wot!? A crashed Canberra just off the runway? But that was only for firepractice. And then the unforgettable sight of 15 and 16 Sqn Buccaneers departing.
We had a guided tour of the Bucc. simulator. A TV-camera "flew" across the model landscape and lots of fans to take away the heat, when the sun (hundreds of lamps) was "shining".
Those were the days
