British Pilots Training Under the Air Training Plan in Canada, 1941. Second World War. 'In distant Canada and so-called "neutral" United States, over 4000 trained British airmen were being turned out every month under the air training plan. Airmen learning their trade far from the grounding fogs of Europe, and thousands of miles beyond the interference of any German bomber. Unfair competition indeed. Yes, Britain was a nuisance that promised for Germany nothing but trouble'. From "Time To Remember - Operation Barbarossa", 1941 (Reel 1); documentary film about events of 1941, on the Eastern Front and at Pearl Harbour.
