Well he did start with his University Air Squadron and was then in the RAFVR before he transferred to the FAA! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudioN Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Very interesting film, and great to hear the man's voice. Sub-titling in Italian can be a major source of amusement, as Brown's words are misunderstood in a number of instances and translated accordingly, e.g., "Bay of Biscay" was turned into "bear biscuit". Of course, "landing a Mosquito on a carrier" is taken literally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDriskill Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Thanks for posting this! I watched it all last night...wonderful! I've noticed that English/Italian translations can be an issue over at a couple Facebook aviation groups I frequent (unless those gadgets in the front of the cockpit actually ARE "air conditioners" and not gunsights...!).
