Documentary: Peter Jackson's Military Treasures

[Zac Yates]

Hi all,
Apparently filmed in 2019, this Forces News documentary on Sir Peter Jackson and his passion for all things Great War with a lot of footage shot in the highly secretive The Vintage Aviator Limited factory - see what types you can spot - and of TVAL's airworthy aircraft doing their thing. Plus a look at his memorabilia collection, the Knights of the Sky display at the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre and, kinda bittersweet, a section on Wingnut Wings.

Enjoy. I really, really did!

That was great. Thanks for the link.

I scrolled through it and it doesn't appear they show the replica lancs or the 88 flak gun he has...
Otherwise, it's a very good representation of an amazing collection.

The Lancs are all stored elsewhere in Wellington and I'm unsure where the 88 lives. Gives off a nice THUMP when it fires, though!

Considering the current state of the RNZAF (no fighters, bombers or attack aircraft, just maritime patrol, anti-shipping and ASW assets), it sounds like Mr. Jackson might have more firepower than his country's air force.
