Well, only I noticed that there's no shadow of the smoke trail?

Bitter rivals thrown together in the steaming jungles of Ireland learn and share and grow and get to have a big "what are we fighting for?" moment at the end.

Guinness strip mining was outlawed due to the damage to the steaming Irish jungles so the miners shamelessly hunted the Haggis into extinction in Ireland, its now only found in remote parts of Scotland's steaming jungles.

To the OP... SoW could be like this, at least with Console Hardware.

There were spitfires Mk.Ibs with 2x Hispano 20mm cannons and 2x or 4x Browning 7.69mm (.303 cal.). But I believe they have used Mk.Vb with Mk.I paintscheme.

Is it even a whole movie? it seems like a movie preview with no actual completed movie...maybe they are trying to get money to finish the project.

The stills, the production shots, everything is seen in the trailer...

One wonders how a 109 should have the range to be in the skies of steamy Ireland in the first place, let alone be shot down by a Spitfire from the future...

The luck of the Steamy Irish..

I was attacked by a Haggis a long time ago. (Scottish not Irish!) It was a big, nasty brute and went for the throat!

But I digress, As long as the cannons jam, I don't see a problem. I can't remember the name of the film it but I remember early post war British film where they were flying Bubble Canopy Mk21's in the first few years of the war. (I guess they asked for spitfires for the film for props and they gave them the only one's going at the time!)

I'm not too worried about little details like that. It is after all a dramatic work. We can just sit back with a knowing smile on out faces when we spot details like that!

Cheers!

A bit like the 109's in the 1969 film 'Battle of Britian'!
