‘Battle of Britain’ – De Speelfilm
OK, so we’ve seen some of these pics before, but there’s some I’ve not seen, at least.
Just a pity my Dutch is non-existent! :rolleyes:
In fact, the rest of that site is pretty expansive!!

Look at that butchery to the leading edge cannon casting of the Spitfire two thirds down the page. 🙁
That is the Shuttleworth Mk V AR501. They ‘chain drilled’ flush nearly all the aircraft with cannon apertures to make them look like early Mks I-II for the BoB period.
Who would have known or really cared?
By the end of the film they were slipping in Buchons in RAF livery to fill in for Hurricane background.

I’m also available for translation of specific parts of the Dutch text.

If you start on the mainpage of his site you’ll see just how much info is there: http://www.strijdbewijs.nl/
The ‘English version’ link only goes to a section about Operation Overlord, not everything is in English unfortunately. You could always try Babelfish of course: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr
If you’ve got any specific words or phrases that you want translated, just put them here and I’ll have a go (or one of the other ‘cloggies’ on this forum I guess 😉 ).

At least Takka takka takka takka remains the same in all languages. Which I find strangely reassuring.
Cracking site Daz thanks for sharing.
