Hi All,
That light in Russia was an explosion you can clearly see the detonation plume in the L/H side of the video that I watched, as for the sound very much like gun fire or fireworks the descriptions in articles all say a BOOM! so the audio recording does not match at all.
As for Aurora well we will only know when it becomes unclassified and they have another hypersonic craft in the skies is when we may get an inkling of it’s existence officially what we need is another grainy photo. I have always had a bit of a wayward theory for the reason why Concorde was stopped, that is because of another classified faster aircraft blatting around and those in the know either never fancied a collision or the chance of it being seen ? cant say either way but that’s just my mad theory and I’ll be going back to the institute when the coppers come. :stupid:

Hi All,
Mr Putin is just flexing his muscles like any bully! He knows the west will not want to start anything, I am convinced he and Mr Obama have come to an unofficial agreement about Syria and the Ukraine i.e. If the U.S. doesn’t interfere in Ukraine then Russia will not interfere in the Syria and the Is campaign of coarse I am probably completely off the target but very strange that both sides only make verbal comments veiled threats about both ?

Hi All,
I for one am looking forward to when I eventually see it, films for me are quite simple to review you either like or you don’t being over critical just doesn’t make sense as when it comes down to the bones reviews are just what one critic personally likes or dislikes about any film.
Yes historical accuracy is important as is accuracy of props,costume,continuity etc.etc. but on the whole you will either like or dislike, my bug-bear are people who pan films before even released as for example the new Star Wars trailer and complaining about the new Light-Saber hilt pathetic really! but that’s just my personal opinion which is I would say very different from others, I just watch a film in a genre I like and don’t bother with being to critical, I want to enjoy not watch for failure unless it’s very blatant mistakes that should have been addressed at the making.

Hi All,
Halifax. Caption reads:- The last of the 710 Halifax’s built by the London Aircraft Production Group giving a low-level flying display after having been named “London Pride” on 16 April 1945.

Stratofreighter,
Is it me or did the Gatling gun have trouble tracking the Tornados ? Great video all the same.
