If you can watch BBC TV then...
You will want to watch this...
http://www.bbc.co.uk/tv/comingup/first-light/ His book "First light" is one of the best BOB books ive ever read...I will not be missing it. |
Perhaps even the best! Amazing that they sent out 19 year old's in a dangerous and complex machine as the Spit. But I guess that was ( and sadly is) how it works. Looking back 40 years in time I remember the naivete and ignorance I had at that time and this is probably why they can send young but not old men into war.
A bloody good read though. Viking |
Ditto, I hope they can give just 10% of the Atmosphere Wellum creates in his memoirs! I have this set to record, as I too found it one of the best books on WW2 aviation I have ever read.

Looking forward to this too, the BBC trailer for it looks impressive. As per usual though, the grognards will dissect it ruthlessly because they have nothing better to do with their lives. :grin:
"I counted the amount of rivets on the CGI Spit fuselage and it was clearly in error.......A 'Henley' teaset and the cutlery used in the mess were not even in production then, as my source here verifies, it is clearly an anachronism *blah blah blah* Christ people get a life.....obsessive compulsive much lol? Sad b*stards :grin: :grin: :grin: |
I've seen the flight-kit made for this film first-hand and it's awesome (for anyone who's interested...:D) The maker did an amazing job with it (as he usually does)
Looking forward to this, the book was great, so I hope this'll be too. It should be, as I gather the team behind this have done their best to nail all the historical factors where possible :D |
Lets hope Oleg gets to watch it and makes a note of the colours of the fields in southern england :rolleyes:
|
Haha :grin: that made me smile. We all know he loves it :-P But seriously. i'll watch it, review it, pick it apart and then write what features should be modelled/changed in SoW-BoB. How does that sound to you all? Great i hear? Cool.
:o |
Just give them!
Even better if you watch it, pick it apart, and then tell BBC how to fix it.
More true to the modus operandi of this forum. Viking |
Hahah :grin: Excellent ;)
