I found a good DVD at the warehouse the other day....not the great planes one, but one i havent seen before.
Some really good footage of the carrier landing test, AC's and the British versions. Ive watched it twice...no point in keeping it. So if anyone wants it, let me know and I'll post it.

Cheers

I think you will enjoy it Ian, the footage of the carrier landings alone makes it stand out. I thought they only did it once, but they did it 21 times!!

A couple of bloopers , but its ok....they are talking about the RAF herc while looking at an RAAF model, but as i said, its a good doco with a lot of unseen stuff.
