• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

HANDLEY PAGE HP-42

Great video! Thanks for posting! :ernaehrung004:

It's longer than I have time to watch all at once so I've been watching it in spurts. Last night it was getting late and I turned off the audio so as not to bother the neighbor in the next apartment, whose bedroom is on the other side of the wall from my desk, and turned on the captions. I got a lot of chuckles from that. While the voice-over guy's accent shows that he is obviously English, whoever did the captions obviously is not, doesn't know English very well, and their total lack of knowledge of English place names, as well as the English words for foreign place names and aviation terminology is downright comical, so much so that I left the captions on when I turned on the audio this morning.

I'm thoroughly enjoying those old Golden Age airliners. I wish I had time to watch the whole thing all at once.
