I have it recorded on Sky+ and was watching it last night from where I'd left it. I came up with the bit where the Polish training squadron engage for the first time. If you look behind the two lead aircraft, which are Hurricanes, I noticed the rear two (possibly 3 but it's half off the screen) are Buchans painted up to look like Hurris....... Now that would be an interesting one for anyone doing the aircraft off the movie.... |

I'd not noticed it, but had heard about the mixing of aircraft. Well spotted though, I'll have to watch it again. |

Yeah I spotted that years and years ago! :lol: I have been told that they painted other aircraft up in camo to loiter around in the background but can't confirm that. |

There is a great site with all sorts of behind the scenes info about the aircraft used, but my bookmarks are so badly organised I can't find the link. |

A lot of this film was filmed over my head when living on Canvey, wonderful sights. |
