Dambusters
For Australian TV viewers, Friday 13th April SBS As It Happened -Dambusters Fly Again.
Last Friday was Bomber Command, worth catching it on their website. Regards S8 |
Will be flying then so have set pvr to record (hopefully) so thanks for the heads up. I hope its a proper tribute to 617 squadron and not an excuse to see more Buffalo airways. Looks like this is a summary: http://http://www.history.ca/ontv/titledetails.aspx?titleid=261043

According to the link
Dambusters Fly Again - On TV - History Television It is the Buffalo Airways attempt. Not the greatest tribute to anyone other than Buffalo Airways IMHO. |
This was shown in the UK last year. Unless it has undergone a re-edit it is less driven and focused on Buffalo than you might think.
The main focus of the docu is a Cam professor constructing a scale mock up of the raid and discussing the challenges that had to be overcome. Personally I think the guy comes across as a bit of a prat and does not portray engineering in a good light, but that is just me... None the less it is worth a watch. |
Unfortunately I'm working Friday evening...
The film follows the trials and tribulations of the team as they race to hit the dam before the winter storms set in. |

Thank you. :)
