A German V1 please log in to view this image Spitfire "tipping-off" a V1. If you've never heard of this insane tactic ....... At first V1's were shot down by gunfire. .With the high risk of being blown up, some of the best pilots started tipping the V1's wing, because of damage to wing tips they later developed a tactic of disrupting the airflow by placing their wing very close to the V1's wing, causing it to topple. Not every pilot did this. At night this was not possible, the flame from the V1 blinded the pilot to everything else, though some Mossie pilots flew past closely in front of the V1, again causing it to topple. please log in to view this image

some great photos there fellas. Comm, the Victoria Hall disaster is probably one of the least publicised disasters to have happened in England. I don't think many outside of the north east know about it.
Done it mate, well part of the way then we had to turn back cos of the water, plus we were ****ting ourselves as well and it was full of rats.
Wouldn't worry about it fella. Pretty obscure fact all the same, unlocked a lot of memories from my studies I'd forgotten about. Cheers fella.
