I absolutely loved it! Fascinating to see my office stripped down and such care taken. Very good documentary

they arent mandatory industry wide, but they may well be in the cardiff BA hangar. I'd be worried though if I was told to wear my safety glasses when watching the thing take off, thats optimism for ya lol

Particularly like the gem about the u/c 'airflow locks the body gear in place and the pilot has to waggle his wings to lock the others'
Also re-inventing the theory of flight.
