Spitfire documentary

Attatched is a link to a video on www.military.com to see the video you would have to sign up, which is free.

This video was part of a documentary about the Spitfire. The documentary probably played in Britain as the commentator has a bit of an accent. I doubt that the final commentary was included even if the visual bit was. This is hilarious and those of you who are Spitfire fans will love the fly-by. It is well worth the registration process.

Thanks Otto. I edited my post. There are a lot of other good military posts there at military.com but most don't deal with WWII. I turned a bunch of workers on to the video and they all loved it.

 

Thanks for bringing that one up again, bigiceman - I'd forgotten about that posting !

The clip has become something of a legend among enthusiasts ; it's one of those he-shouldn't-really-have-done-it-but-it- is -great moments.....

 

Does anyone know where that clip got put in? Was it just a news feature or was it something that went into a documentary? I would love to have a higher quality copy that would stand up to full screen resolutions.

 

It was an out-take from a British TV documentary ( couldn't be broadcast for obvious reasons ) - I'm afraid I've no idea where a better copy can be had. If I come across it, I'll let you know.....
