Glad to see that she made it back on to terra firma with only minimal damage to her rear 🙂

I enjoyed reading this thread and hats off to all concerned who got her back down, although it’s a bit of a trek for me it’s made me want to visit NEAM when we have better weather, so when the summer months roll around I’ll see you there.

here you go

It’s on play.com’s web site, on page two of the search and is being re-released on 22/02/2010, it’s £10.99 on a pre-order price and £16.99 after release.

hope this helps.

what a picture!!!

Hi newforest, in the box for the “quick code” type the word aircraft.
there’s also a mega photo of a TSR2 test flight along side a T5 and what looks like a Canberra 🙂
I have always loved the photo of george bailing out, very sad that it was another lightning lost but very happy that George Aird made it out alive!

maybe someone could get a group buy together if it’s available as a poster?

funny isn’t it, there are more people who’ve walked on the moon still alive than there are airworthy lightnings!

Two F15’s (low and fast) over the kendal turn off, heading towards the north lakes at exactly 16.03 Hrs today.

brilliant

That has to be the best photo I’ve seen on the forum so far!

What a brilliant set of photo’s, the best by far though has to be the lightning burner shot, fantastic 😮

As a programme that set out from the start to rediscover the science behind the raid I thought it was pretty good, like some have already said it was a programme for entertainment purposes rather than a cold hard no vearing from the facts documentary.

The bit that got me the most was the part where Hugh Hunt got all emotional while sitting in the Lancaster, I found it quiet touching and it showed that even for all his calculations and working out the be all and end all of making it successful he understood the human side of it all and the sacrifice those lads made for all of us.
