The owner is quite entitled to ask what ever he likes, but to then fly half way round the planet using public airports and expect people to keep it quiet is a tad optimistic…

Bit of an oxymoron.

I dunno…there was a fair smattering of ages across the cast…at the start of the battle there were still many ‘regular’ RAF pilots in fighter command and some of these – especially the sqn/flight commanders were quite a bit older than most of the ‘A’ or ‘VR’ pilots

So looking across some of the cast DOB’s…

Michael Caine was approx 36 (not a lot of people know that :D) so not impossible for a sqn commander.
Ian Mcshane was approx 26 so fairly young
Edward Fox was 31
James Cosmo (Jamie) was 20
David Griffin was 25

So only Jamie fits the bill.

What was so good about P O C apart from the Deja-vu feeling that we had been there before with ‘Fighter Pilot’.
After all that effort getting ‘Friston’ operational and having some real aircraft in the air it hardly has had a ‘repeat’ record like ‘Dads Army’; i wonder why.

It was ‘so good’ because it’s been around for ages and people get connected to it, and naturally blast anything that might rock their fondations. What if someone actually tried to make something new? 😮

POC was good because of the characters, not the actual action scenes (apart from the nice take off and landing scenes and low flying). They did it much better with First Light if you ask me, but concerning First Light, the script was just mediocre. POC had a very good scriptwriters.

Combine those two and you might have something good.

I welcome anything new. Can’t keep re-watching the same old. If it’s bad then it’s forgotten. If it’s good, it will be a new benchmark. And it’s about time.

Andy, do you know who’s organising it? It would be really nice if people asked before they used photos marked “All rights reserved”.

Perhaps they settled with a touch of Photoshop so it wouldn’t look exactly the same. LOL

Sorely missed something like this at Legends 11.

Oh, so terribly, humbly sorry – it was the first one to catch my eye.

Fantastic pictures, Tim 😀

What kind of movement

There are Spitfires buried in any place that sounds similar.

We all know that.
