What a wonderful idea to film Tucks story,it was the first biography I ever read (circa 1968) - always wanted to find out more about this man...it was a great story.
Good luck with the film...something to look forward to.
Cannot agree more about the CGI on the 'aviator',just looked like a cartoon,personally I would rather see a wrong (but real ) a/c than a bad cgi scene.
Also I would agree with Jem60 about the 109 pilot,I knew him when he was wingco flying at Abingdon,he is a really genuine guy and ISTR that he would not let the rescue party damage the 109 to get him out,I believe he was upside down in the cockpit for something like 30 mins until he could be released without causing further damage.
