Fortunatly I taped it as I can't buy it in Format 1 for USA.
I have this on DVD (I have a DVD player modded to all region) and agree this is is great movie. Actually, any movie with Kenneth Moore is usually worth watching.

Badrer's story is an amazing one. I have always admired him as a flyer.

We all know why he enjoyed the film -

It's the nurses' uniform, you see.
It is a good film, along with The First Of The Few - the story of R. J. Mitchell's development of the Spitfire.
Films were best when they could use the real things and not cgi.
Fully agree, fantastic film. Bader is portrayed very well. First of the Few is also a great film, David Niven is great in it.
