BBC2 Documentary on BA149/Gulf War Beginning

So did everyone miss this programme? Surprising that no-one has mentioned it yet. Any comments? These links will give you some gen if you were as much in the dark as I was.

I watched about an hour of it, and found it really absorbing, even the military stuff that I have no interest in!

Waiting for it to come on Teleport Replay, that’s if it ever does, to finish watching it!

It was an excellent documentary. I was very pleased that it lasted 90 minutes, although I was disappointed that it didn’t start until 11:20pm!

Very very interesting. First BA-747-200s in landor livery. And great interviews with the crew. just a very complelling story.

Absolutely amazing program! Not really for just pure aviation enthusiasts other than some VERY real seeming shots from the cockpit of landing and takeoff.

I am not usually into Middle East stuff but was a very compelling program to watch.

Recorded it, but not gotten the opportunity yet to watch it. Was it worthwhile or not? If not, I wont bother and delete it.

No idea!:D Not received where I am today just heard about it on the grapevine so hoping someone could report on the programme and perhaps expand on the incident as this was the first I knew about it.:)
