I posted this link last night in a discussion. Watching the Spits just got my juices flowing.

The music is kinda moody, but those roaring spits push the envelope for excitement... for me.

The BOB film ws made over 40 years ago(1969), when they still had some of the WW2 aircraft flyable or that could be made flyable.

I just enjoy seeing all the aircraft, even if there is quite abit of actor staging kinda junk going on.

It will go up sticky for a while and we'll see what the interest is.

Actually, it might be a valuable thread, if other members share things that are memorable to them about the Battle of Britain.

There might be a better higher resolution version out there on the web. Post the links, if so in this thread.

I can always edit this thread and point to a better version.

Love that Spit show vid Nearmiss, its in my YT faves too. Brings a proud tear to me eye, so it does *sniffle.....lol* Fantastic flying with the synchronised looping at 2.40+ too.
