Video - The German

http://player.vimeo.com/video/31202906?autoplay=1
I'm grateful to my brother-in-law, Tony, who is a pilot, for this.
This is a fascinating, nine minute, short film called "The German", particularly the incredible four minute footage of a desperate Spitfire vs. ME-109 duel.
You feel like you are there! Amazing computer work blended in with real photography.
Also an interesting factual story that most of us did not know. History is rarely 'over'.
Now sit back and strap on your parachute harness ... it is the Summer of 1940 over the skies of England. Listen to the perfect 'purr' of the Rolls Royce Merlin .....
