Color film sailplanes

Some absolutely beautiful Elfenbein color footage of sailplanes taken in '39.

Re: Color film sailplanes

Hate to be a spoiler. Its pactically impossible for me to watch a world war II film anymore. So many errors. But original footage. Shure. But year can not be earlier than October 1939 as Stamkennzeichen PU+ (seen on the tug) and type of fuselage cross points to after October 39 too, and in my opinion stronly indicate the year be 1940.

Also most of the film indicate taken that year and the following winter.
