    I was there too. Saw the bits falling off the Sea Vixen but didn’t realise what was happening.

    The Spirit of St Louis crash must be down to differing viewpoints. I clearly saw the starboard wing fold up after an initial twist and then plummet to the ground. I understand from a local that it crashed on the road outside. As it happened, I thought I’d try to take a picture to see if it would help, thought it was too late, and even more importantly, didn’t want to. If the pilot’s survived I’ll be delighted, and very surprised.

    I went to my first airshow, kneehigh to a tailskid, in 1957 or 58.
    It’s the first mishap I’ve ever seen. I’m having trouble coming to terms with it.

    You’ve been very fortunate and I hope you never need to see another
    I remember my first when I was a kid, hit me hard that night

    A great film
    Playing Enter the Matrix is a must for any big fans of the Matrix
    Gives extra understanding and back story
    I hope they’re going to release some of the extra scenes, maybe a la LOTR extended version
    Can’t keep playing the game when I want to watch the trilogy!!

    The Animatrix is great
    The first 3 are a must watch!
    Some are better than others, got them all in DivX
    Just waiting to buy the DVD now 🙂

    Roll on November!!

    They should do more stuff in the style of Final Flight of the Osiris
    (should do the same with Star Wars)

    I’ve got the C700UZ
    Not tried it on fast jets, but it’s good enough for all other things, especially considering that it’s £1000 cheaper than a digital slr

    Biggest problem is that you cant take multiple shots quickly and that the zoom is slow
    Cracking little camera for its cost and size though

    Just wish I had the money to upgrade my 500N’s to D10s

    RE: Rebuild or Replica??

    I think “rebuild” is a bit of a stretch as their wasn’t much left of the airframe

    That Woodford airshow was my first experience of an airshow crash, and unfortunately not my last

    It seems that if they can get the original aircraft plates then it is considered a rebuild, even if they are rebuilding 99% of the aircraft

    Maybe it should be considered to be a new build

    RE: Everton_1878 – Let’s Mass Email MGM for BofB DVD!

    I recieved my email reply from DDevereaux@MGM.com

    MGM have a feedback page on their site somewhere that I used for the initial contact

    There must be massive scope for DVD extras.
    Documentaries, wartime footage and un-used footage such as used in Dark Blue World

    Keep me up to date on MGM’s replies!!

    They’ve released other less popular war films so why not this?
    Can even get Dambusters on DVD now

    Heres to BoB on DVD 🙂
