Thats fair comment Richard,yes I did watch 'Piece of Cake' had no idea that it was on DVD these days ? speaking of TV related films do you remember 'Flambards' all about early pioneer flying ( Flambards village in Helston bequethed some of the artifacts from this ) then 'Wings' another TV series on WW1 flying,I own one of the big Albatross C.1 biplane models from this one,purchased it as a wreck and rebuilt her to fly again.
There are probably more long since forgotton,just remembered one,the 'Planemakers' for this they built a realistic full sized jet aircraft and placed it in the static park at the SBAC Show at Farnborough,it was so realistic that very few knew it was a mock up.
Any more favourites out there ?
