the recorder worked ! !
What a great little film, I see Kermit Weeks has the last flying Sunderland at Fantasy Of Flight , they closed last year , wonder what became of her ?
The aircrew interviews were an insight of the way it was , I liked the explanation of why they carried pigeon's aboard , according to an ex captain it was to enable accurate navigation , the Navigator would plot the course on a map , stand a pigeon on the table & if it nodded the position was correct
Donitz ordered the U Boat crews to duke it out on the surface with the Sunderlands , they were getting nailed if they dived . . . .
Thanks for that , good spot.
