Yeah those old wartime films are full of "Wizard prang" Stuff and suchlike,bit dated but fun.
My fave line from one fighter jock was"There I was 6,000ft,"Jerry all around me",Bloodey fan stopped","Had to step out".

Biggles type dialoge LOL.

Must addmit these old movies had great special effects models for there time.
