  • This is surely one of my favourite clips from 'Victory over the Sea'. I saw it long ago in 1984. The effectiveness of the RN Sea camouflage was very striking - at a distance, the wings of the Swordfish seem to disappear....Thanks for putting the clip from Reaching for Skies on here - got the one of the T-2 Buckeye as well ?

  • several of these small flimsy little planes sunk 3 mighty Italian Battleships at Taranto. doesn't seem right does it.

  • My Grandad repaired these plains in the fleet air arm

  • Sink The Bismark and and a master U-Boat Murderer!! All in one!!

  • Don't know why I was drawn to this plane at a young age. I guess it was the thought of an outdated plane getting the job done. Speaks well of the crews

  • 5/5 for the friction starter. I would be scared to death to prop start that plane.

  • the slowest, the weakest but the most legendary plane, next to the spitfire, the swordfish sunk loads on ships with very few loses.

  • The first TSR2! I love this plane. Check out my clip of the Stringbag please.

  • Brave Men who saw ative service in a Swordfish

  • Relic from a lost age maybe, but so was much of Mussolini's very modern navy after the Stringbags visited!

  • and so was the very modern Bismarck!!

  • The Swordfish was described relics from an lost time, Doubledecked with its pilots in open cabins and an body of cloth and wiers. This picture is very excessive though, the swordfish bomber was very suitable for their tasks because of their low speed and that they could fly in very extremely bad weathers because of their aerodynamic quality. Great plane

  • What a wonderful old gal she was indeed! Like the PBY, SBD (and others) she kept working long after she reached retirement age, doing a great job. Those brave men who flew her deserve the credit also. Thanks for posting it.
