Great BoB film downloads

[Peter Kassak]

the first one is from czech/GB made movie called Tmavomodry svet = dark blue world...
quite nice story and shots of air battle...

[Andy Mac]

The music is 'Aces High' by Iron Maiden.

very appropriate as Iron maiden is an English band and "Aces High" was about (I believe) the Battle of Britain.

sure it was about the BoB....It also had footage from BoB movie as videoclip...showing also on concerts...I love these lyrics...

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we’ve got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack.

Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheelblocks there’s no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before it’s too late.

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live. aces high.

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again.

Bandits at 8 o’clock move in behind us
Ten me-109’s out of the sun
Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns

Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, aces high.

Thanks for posting the lyrics, I didn't have them handy.

Yes, they are good lyrics too.
definately gives the impression of what it must have been like.
