I HAVE NOT SEEN THIS FILM FOR A WHILE, BUT IT HAS JUST BEEN RELEASED IN AUSTRALIA ON DVD. WHAT A GREAT FILM A MUST FOR ALL YOU KEEN AIRCRAFT COLLECTORS. MY FAVOURITE PIECE IS WHERE THE SCIENTIST DR WALLIS IS ASKING A TOP AIR FORCE COMMANDER FOR THE USE OF A WELLINGTON BOMBER TO TEST HIS NEW BOMB & THE COMMANDER IS SAYING WHAT THINKS YOU RATE WHEN THE WELLINGTON IS IN SUCH DEMAND FOR THE WAR EFFORT & WALLIS PONDERINGS FOR A SECOND & THAN DELIVERS THE CLASSIC LINE....'PERHAPS BECAUSE I DESIGNED IT'.... NEXT SCENE SHOWS WALLIS FLYING IN THE COCKPIT OF THE WELLINGTON. WHAT A CLASSIC PUT DOWN.
