That narrator knows a thing or two. I didn’t know that the Canberra was powered by petrol. Would that be 100 octane?

Yes I thought that, made it all the more entertaining, mind you it is made for general Jo Public who think aeroplanes run on petrol not diesel or paraffin. All that petrol could blow the whole shebang sky high! WOW! Nail biting stuff though. LOL!

Like so many, a must read, another great story.

I still always wonder how the conscientious objectors felt when they saw the first film from the death camps.

I think most people would have been in shock and disbelief. How could one human being do that to another human being. But it still goes on in some places even today in the so called now civilized world.

Sadly it takes War to bring people together, we forget our petty differences and pull together as per the quote.

Makes me think though these days going back to the 1970’s when there was a sugar shortage some people in the super market rather than just take one bag tried to clear the shelf for themselves. Pure and utter selfishness though thankfully the shop didn’t let them get away with it. Turn out a bit of an embarrassing situation for the customer.

WOW! Amazing condition. Try right click and translate for the article.

Just watched it on the BBC i player. Well done the BBC for an excellent documentary, and to everyone involved in the recovery. Amazing film and Video quality. Must see. :eagerness:

Unlike Commercial Air accident investigations. The MOD Don’t usually publish their findings to the media. In my own opinion this was a tragic accident created by a mishap, possibly failure to disarm the ejection seat before and after flight operation’s. Usually by the insertion of the disarming pins after use which prevents the operation of the ejection seat handles.
