Yes Iv'e seen the BB flight once,about 15 years ago, its amazing. I used to build Airfix models with my dad back in the 70s He was in the RAF during the war so could tell me all about them and used to say'' I worked on one of them"He past in 1989, but I have his medals and photos taken during the war.
