I only missed it because I hadn't been born!

Go and open the clip in you tube then have a look at the posters' other stuff.....Brilliant.

Also go to his website, some fantastic archive speeches etc. Loads to watch and listen to, especially Douglas Bader slagging of the government for failing the inventors and the aero manufacturers.
