Hi Leigh,

First off welcome back on deck mate, I hope all is well with you and yours.

Second, thanks to you Penguin for bumping this, I missed it till now

I started by d'l the first 2 parts and watching...... You had me hooked, just finished watching the 50 minute version on youtube, amazing! Bloody amazing!!

Favourite parts? Too many to list, but way up there is the footage on board the Tirpitz, this must have taken an age to capture. You seem to have wringed every single angle, it reminds me so much of old WW2 footage of battlewagons. Another small, but nonetheless lovely touch, the buzzards circling over the battlefield in Africa

Thanks to you old friend, you have me searching my old games, HDD's and archived mod disks for anything IL2, and looking to purchase "Theatre of War", ( not sure it will even run on win7 ). The Africa campaign airfield was populated so realistcally, could almost be a carbon copy of many b/w plates I have in my collection of reading material.

I salute and thank you for presenting to us what was obviously a labour of love. Maybe one day this will be finished, for me however this will always be a collectors edition

Very best wishes and genuine regards.
