"Vell - I vas flying along in my Spitfire when I spotted these fokkers in the distance, I dived on them and shot two of the fokkers down, then did a quick roll came up underneath them and shot down another couple of fokkers - the other fokkers flew away in panic"

As the girls were giggling at this the head teacher said - "Of course what S/Ldr Paderewski means by fokkers is that these were the German Focke Wulf 190, isn't that correct S/ldr?"

"Certainly is generally - but in this instance these fokkers were Messerchmitt's"

Have been inside a b17, very cramped with a thin walkway up the middle past the bomb racks and side gunner ports.
Taill gunner has to crawl down a tiny tunnel to get seated, belly gun ball has a very tiny door to get in on the top, talking to the staff
i was told that you had to be thin and no more than about 5 ft 6 and flexable to get in, bomb racks a tiny and hold not a lot, not one bit like the movies.
