I take it concurs with the Big Wing?
BBMF Spit MK356 Over Woodhall Spa now
Grace Spitfire T9 over Kettering
To anyone aeroplane minded I am sure the flying will look wooden, to fast, to slow, fake, false and computer generated but for the millions of non aeroplaner peeps, they will be completely sucked in by it and the story line, just look at Memphis Belle, or rather don’t. If you have flown in close proximity to another aircraft CGI cannot get that feel right unlike old wartime footage of air to air combat which IS real, also remember most of the flying was done at night which I am sure will help make the flying a little more convincing again unlike Memphis Belle.
The story line will have to be changed to fit in the American angle as if you did not know Barns Wallis was a American ! No he was not but they invented everything else during the worwah.
I am not unhappy if this is dropped and would be even more unhappy if they decided to re do the Battle of Britain, again its the film of all films and the first time they tried to make things as right as they could with what aircraft were available at the time and of course reallykicked of the preservation of what we see today in Buchons, Hurricans and Spits.
That is my two penneth on this subject
PS, be good to see more of the Lanc and Wimpy full scales
Brilliant !
are they not using DB605s rather than 601s? I think there is a good lot of DBs around.
BBMF Spitfire MkII just over Lincoln now.
Wow, must be very rare indeed?
Stuart, I say the same about celebrities, Cilla, George Cole, who next?
I do not have anything near AH7270, strange
Heard but not seen, Merlin engine about 35 mins ago possibly heading towards Southend or North over Danbury Essex
