Re: Looking for help on a film project
I've read somewhere that Sailor Malan let the two pilots take the blame, even gave evidence against them....
Did Roger Bushell acting on their behalf when it went to an RAF court??

Well, “ For details of the ‘Battle of Barking Creek’ see Tony Holmes, Hurricane Aces 1939–40, Osprey 1998, pp. 9–11.”, does anyone have it?

Re: Looking for help on a film project
Matt,
It is a very complicated story, and has many many more layers than the popular history take that had been translated around many different books.
Be careful what you read because alot of historians have simply regurgitated the old folktale version and it is not always entirely true.
Malan did appear for prosecution at court martial and he claimed he had countermanded his attack order, but the other pilots had not heard this. I have my own theory as to why this happened and that is the joy of what my dissertation and the talks I am going to be delivering is about. Hence why I asked for your help in creating some animations to accompany it.

I'm sure we could also find willing voice actors for the R/T communications if you'd like.
Fight on and fly on to the last drop of blood and the last drop of fuel - to the last beat of the heart.
