    Personally I have no strong preference; both have moments of brilliance…

    Creaking Door – there is an excellent documentary on the new DVD release…

    There is also a very interesting book by Paul M. Sammon that I borrowed a few years back called ‘Future Noir – The Making of Blade Runner’, I did mean to buy my own copy…..but never quite got round to it.

    I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I’ve watched C-beams glittering in the dark by the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like, huh tears in rain.

    Time, to die.

    Deckard:”I guess in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before…..anybody’s life…..my life.”

    My favourite film, but haven’t seen it in years, and probably misquoted it!

    Brian Hanrahan says it was taken on 21st May, hence that would have been Lt Morrell shooting down Capitan de Corbeta Philippi’s A-4Q Skyhawk after he bombed HMS Ardent.

    I’m amazed how high up this combat is taking place; in the accounts I’ve read of this combat between the A-4Q Skyhawks and Sea Harriers I got the impression that it all took place at extremely low level, down in the valleys, and not as this video clip seems to show at a much higher level, over the hills.

    The tracker then continues tracking down into the sea to show what looks like cannon strikes in the water (I wonder if that footage is of one of the Type 22 getting strafed).

    Probably, I think the Type 22 frigates were the only RN ships fitted with video equipment as part of their missile system trackers?

    I’m not taking sides here, just pointing out a fact that it was a silly war. No grand principles were at work. No conflict of ideology, whether political or religious.

    So religious differences are a good reason to go to war then? :rolleyes:

    I promised myself I wouldn’t get drawn into political discussions here; this is a very interesting thread that concentrates on the military aspects of this conflict and has had contributions from veterans of both sides.

    You clearly have strong feelings about the conflict, as do many others, so if you want to discuss the political aspects can I suggest you start a thread on the ‘General Discussion’ board. If you do I’ll be happy to listen to you and share my views but it doesn’t sound like either of us will change our point of view. 🙂
