As much as I like 80s music can't be bothered to watch the video.

That said I love airplanes, I believe the Enola Gay is at the Smithsonian in D.C. but could be mistaken.

Bring back 80s Pop...Enola Gay was a good song....and the history of the bomber...she had a hell of a task and came back in one piece!..

For those that are too young to know Enola Gay dropped the A Bomb on Hiroshima in japan

Thanks very much for that - just making up a 'fast' advert ruff.
Not even sure I need them till I hear from the client or which way he wants to run.

Not that I recall.

The clip also wins the award for 'Miming the bass guitar action in a manner that least resembles the notes being played'.
