Awesome! Thanks for sharing! As an old pilot I can really appreciate this.
NOT a military pilot but still a pilot none the less. Thought I might better clarify so no one would get the wrong idea!

It looks like there's rain in the area now, so you can go out and see if you can repeat your deed

WE often hear the term, “The Greatest Generation”, a reference made of those who served our country during WWII. This is a story of one of those persons who personify that period. When reading and watching this film, think of this young 18 year old teenager comparative to those today of the same age. It makes you wonder if our nation could duplicate our survival.
An 18 year-old just out of high school was trained to take pictures of damage done to German targets by B-17's. He flew in a British Spitfire fitted with extra fuel tanks where the guns were. In other words, he flew over Germany unarmed...
This is probably one of the best WWII film clips out there. Stored for 61 years in two suitcases of 16mm home movies that were inherited by filmmaker William Lorton from his great uncle who served as a Flight Surgeon. Those suitcases contained 3 hours of war footage that included a compelling crash landing of a Spitfire in 1944.
Filmed in a 2005 interview with the then 83 year old pilot and seeing the expression on his face when he realizes it is him in the cockpit, is something you won't soon forget. At 18 years old, he was all alone, behind enemy lines, with no guns, no escort, and he gladly did it. They just don't make them like that anymore. It was truly the greatest generation and we owe them so much.Here’s the video - it’s about 14-1/2 minutes. Enjoy!
