This is probably old news to some, but I don't recall seeing this show on this side of the pond. There's some nice footage of Canopus about a third of the way through. Hosted by rock star/airline pilot Bruce Dickinson...

Ahh, two of my favourite things in one video....

I've never seen it on this side of the pond either I must admit.

An excellent series. Wish we had Discovery Wings available here because I'm sure it's got a lot of good shows.

I especially liked episode 2 not only because he rightly chastised the British Government of the time for the failure of the Trident, but because he found out why they call the 727 a "Pocket Rocket".

AFAIK the USA does have a Discovery wings....

We used to have Discovery Wings in the UK but it became Discovery Turbo and now Aircraft hardly ever get a look in after cars and.....gulp....trains.....

Excellent series....I loved it when he took the 727 for a test spin......

We used to have Discovery Wings, but it changed to the Discovery Military channel. It still shows the military aircraft shows, but no more commercial, or private aircraft.

Ruddy Discovery channels.....Can't they get anything right..... :roll:
