    Gunnery...[Vid and RAF Book]..

    Last week I acquired [read: downloaded] a RAF Gunnery School textbook in image form. It includes different exercises used by RAF pilots as part of training exercise during 1943 and later. Now comes the interesting bit....

    1) I've made a video with it. Its not the best IL2 film you'll see, and the soundtrack may not be to your tastes, but you didn't make the film did you

    Its about 14 megs so its not TOO big, but its only 2 minutes long - the huge comparative size is because to be able to SEE the text in any kind of way it needs to be at a higher resolution than 640x480 or less

    AND

    2) I've uploaded the RAF Gunnery School exercise for you all to view in proper size. This allows you to see the pages left out from the film aswell as being able to read the text properly
