Sorry guys...a civvy invading your space.
BoB Best movie ever!
Dam Busters..Yeah!
633 Squadron Yeah!
Always....now if Holly Hunter payed her cards right she could....sigh!!!

You lot(poms) made some great (war) movies just post WW2, none of the BS that America just can't seem to leave out, like the latest remake of pearl harbour!

Anyone remember a movie done at pinewood studios in the late 1940s called, I think, Hurricane Squadron? It had several actors who had actually flown hurricanes in the BoB. Starts off with a newbie ending up in the Wingco's front yard on landing. I'll have to ring my dad, (ex RAF late 40s to early 50s,French Foriegn Legion Air Wing and RAAF), he has it on tape.

Chuck.
Edited for Always
