Hi Edal,

Thanks for the links, this looks like a very interesting documentary. Going to watch it!

About 'Dark Blue World': great movie, reminds me that I want to see it again. Very good director and actors, touching story.

Have fun!

Dark Blue is an awesome film Edal, I'll second Mac on that.
The thing that impressed me most about the documentary on 303 squadron was not only there overiding desire to just shoot down Germans but their complete disregard for our 'british' rules and regulations- josef frantiseks story is just amazing and tragically sad in that he died in the way he did. It does make the scene in the film BoB much more amusing now that I know that's basically what they did on every sortie!!!!
Repeat Please..........

Did the links work for you guys??

I could not find a copy of "dark blue world" in any American store around my area. Looks like they are only available online for $22 or more, fortunately, I live near the border with Mexico and I just found a Region 4 copy in a Mexican store for just $5 Cant wait to watch it, thanks for the recommendation.
