Great 13 part series on the air war in WWII on "discovery wings"

[SpecialCake]

Unfortunately I'm unable to find any link to any official information on this show, but there is a great show being circulated called "Clash of Wings". Do a google search on that phrase and have a look at the first couple of episodes. I'm watching the third one, which I believe is as far as is out yet, and it focuses mainly on the Eastern front.

Very interesting show, great footage. One particularly cool shot was a video clip, however short, of paratroopers jumping from TB-3s.

a link would be useful

I agree, but if I didn't state it before, I can't find any OFFICIAL source for said info. If you do a search you will find plenty of details, however I can't directly link because the search results are mired in torrents - discussion of which I believe are forbidden 'round these parts.

Discovery Wings shutdown in 2007 and was replaced in the US by the Military Channel and in the UK by Discovery Turbo

EDIT
It is on the Military Channel (US), listing here (http://military.discovery.com/tv-schedules/series.html?paid=52.15853.86426.9992.x)

Good find, however, the description therein doesn't have anything to do with any showing I've seen so far. Thanks for adding a link.

A ridiculous and meaningless and years out of date unresearched thread. Waste of time.

If you go on youtube and do a search for Battle of Britain Documentary you will find many great videos, including a history channel doc.
Also there is a doc streaming on netflix, same thing, just search for Battle of Britain, this doc gives a some surprising things about the battle, including if the Luftwaffe could have sustained the battle for much longer and if the bombing of London was a mistake or not.
