I also found it a good program, but they will insist on cutting to and fro without enough explanation. Some good old wartime footage.
I have a special interest as my favourite uncle was killed there in 1942.

When I joined 39 Sqdn in 1952 we were given the history of the sqdn which was formed as a home defence sqdn to combat the German airships. Seemed apt that it was a nightfighter sqdn then, one of the very first. It is extremely hard to imagine the tenacity and endurance needed by those men, flying, in open cockpits, at extremes of the aircrafts performance, in order to combat these huge airships. Then they had to find a safe night landing 😮

Yes, very moving.

Now that’s what you call a “split ar*e turn”

Another hero, and a very brave man.

Max engine speed was 3000rpm, but the reduction gear cuts that to ????

That Mossie is a real labour of love. If anyone deserves a medal, it has to be Tony Agar.

Not sure about Burma, but there appears to be a few derelict ones in Iraq.

Well here are some being delivered just starting up to leave El Adem

Be nice to see one back in the air again.
