Torrent description

The Royal Air Force At War: The Unseen Films 1943-1944 collects together previously unavailable wartime RAF training and information films for the first time. The eight films presented here date from 1943 and 1944. Far from being on the defensive - as it had been during the early years of the war - the RAF was now firmly on the offensive, taking the war to the enemy with a vengeance and looking forward to its role in the invasion of Europe that was certain to come. Of particular note in this collection is rare footage of the Stirling, a Bomber Command aircraft all too often overlooked in favour of the Lancaster. A Fighter Has Crashed - Made by Selwyn Films, this information film shows the best way to rescue a pilot from a crashed Spitfire, Typhoon or Beaufighter. Missed Date - A stark but poetic warning to RAF personnel that you never know who may be listening in your local pub. Nought Feet - A training film teaching low flying navigation techniques, packed with low level footage. RAF Regiment - A rare look at the supporting role of the Regiment, with dramatic combat scenes from the North African Campaign and rare RAF Kittyhawk footage. Towards The Offensive - Bostons, Spitfires, Lancasters and USAAF B-17s are all featured in this celebration of the Allies on the attack. We Attack - A stirring celebration of the RAF on the offensive, comparing the war to tactics on a soccer pitch. Front Line Airforce - The RAF Film Production Unit\\\'s account of establishing a forward fighter airbase in support of the 8th Army during the Italian Campaign. Night Flight - The re-created raid by Stirling bombers emphasises the role of the Navigator in the success of the mission.
