This could be the start to a great resource chaps.
Please feel free to add to the list but do not leave any comments and I will stick it later.

I will edit out any spurious comments as they detract from this kind of resource.
Thanks for starting it off Barry.

Just watched this one and I don't think I need to worry about altitude. What a fantastic sequence of shots includng the ground action too.
Great resource list, well done and thank you. Much appreciated.

Thank you.

I did enjoy the sequence with the Mk 4 tank Neil. I have never actually seen one in a re-enactment before.
The air combat was interesting too, although I felt that the Bristol Pilot was being a bit precious with his aircraft. he was totally outclassed by the Tripes.

It was interesting watching the 3 tripes...first one would go in then break off then the second then the third. The speed in which these manoeuvres were carried out has me thinking why worry about altitude unless you want to dive or climb away out of it. I look at it that combat happens in a given space were aeroplanes will climb dive, roll immelman within a tight altitude envelope. That's my perception anyway.
