S1 Ep 5 - BONUS CHAT - Flying High

In this very first bonus episode, Tim and Kevin continue their deep dive on the evolution of airplane design, revisit some of their favourite plane movies and hatch a plan about taking their own Spitfire and Harrier Jump Jet for a test flight.

Tim and Kevin chat about a few movies during this episode including
The V.I.P.s (1963)
Mortadella (1971)
The First of the Few (1942)
The Dam Busters (1955)
Battle of Britain (1969)

Correction - Kevin mentioned a book by Matt White, but it is actually by his brother Rowland White (whoops) and is called Vulcan 607, details here:

And the book about the making of the film, Battle of Britain is by Leonard Mosley
(published 1969, ISBN 0297179098)
