My escape from BA.038 was damn fun!
Evidence for the defence!

Great book, second only to Gavin Lyall’s ‘Shooting Script’.:)
Gavin Lyall, ‘The Shooting Script’, my one and only book if necessary on the Desert Island! B.25, Dove, Vampires, women, double plot, simple but enjoyable, you can smell the cordite and the fuel between each page.:)
That’s a good entry question for the Forum and welcome! Hope you are going to start a separate thread with some interesting snippets from that log book!:)
Looks more like eight to me.;)
Yup, missed that one hiding in the hangar. Only seven to my eyes and something that looks like a helicopter.:)
Can’t understand why the USAF keep naming different aircraft the same ! Of course we now have Globemaster III in the shape of the portly C17.
It’s the super power mentality, presumably when they go to the moon regularly, there will be Spacemasters.:D
Still a great advert the second time!:D

Think this is going to be a short thread, so while waiting for the entries, you can enjoy ‘The two airliner race’, great if you haven’t seen it before and great if you haven’t seen it recently.
Was previously XL617.
Nice photo wl745, that is a C-124 Globemaster and we were talking about C-74 Globemasters!:)
The pilot was probably Tad Houlihan.

Lot more history and photos here.
Thanks for those interesting photos, looks as though there might be a few wings lying about.
I will keep a watch on e-bay for you. Mu usual sources haven’t unearthed anything available at the moment.
Surprised that Janie has been absent from this discussion, definitely been under the radar recently!
Photo of Gannet two years ago.:(
It depends whether you wish to watch the film or keep on wondering just how good it was. Realistically this is the only way that films of this ilk are going to see the light of day.
And if it is any good, you can sell bootleg copies here (by PM only!):D
