Yeah it was a great show. I particularly enjoyed it for the same reasons as you, ren frew. I liked the footage of the young lads heads turning as the aircraft climbed into the sky. Reminded me of when you could go past Heathrow and see families spending days out watching planes, nowadays it just seems to be photographers and spotters.

When I saw the boys in the ’50s plane spotting on top of the Queens Building…I couldn’t help of think some forum members may ahve been there!! :diablo:

I watched the surviving a crash documentary too, I couldnt help notice that they didnt really give proper facts to the cause of the crashes – such as the eithiopian that ran out of fuel, they conveniently forgot to add the part that there was the problem of some hijackers onboard requesting to be flown to Australia.. :rolleyes:

Absolutely, or the China Airlines which they used an example of everyone escaping from a water accident, despite the fact the blasted thing only rolled backwards into the sea!
