Nice, looks like they flew out over Pevensey near Eastbourne, good shot of Beachy Head and the seafront in the background. They certainly kept low throughout. Wonder if my rely's saw them go ?!

Thanks for the link. cool stuff.

This reminds me of a question I wanted to post long ago.

Can you french guys recommend french produced WW2 aviation feature films? Shot during the war or later.
I'm generally interested in WW2 war films made from the viewpoint of different countries.

Mesmerising stuff!

After a while all that ground rolling by became quite unnerving.

The french movie “La promesse de l’aube” dedicated to the french writer Romain Gary (and WW2 bomber crew) includes several aviation sceneries.

You should ask your question on the Wings of Glory french forum Le Cirque Volant, as many members are familiar with this type of movies.
