The Douglas Bader Story

There was a Douglas Bader film on terrestrial telly yesterday early evening.

Once the long awaited spares eventually arrived at Duxford, Bader asked his Engineering SNCO if he now had sufficient.

"I've got enough for all the planes in Fighter Command, Sir!", said the chap.

"It is an aeroplane, never call it a plane!", said Bader.

And if it is good enough for Douglas, then it should be good enough for the rest of us!
