The Sky Riders/The Riders in the Sky

The best (Czech)oslovakian movie about Czechoslovak airmen in the RAF, book and exhibition.

This book written by Filip Jánský, that was pen-name of Richard Husman, War Veteran, Air Gunner in RAF and USSR The Sky Riders was base for the movie with the same name shot by director Jindřich Polák. I think, that this movie is the best (Czech)oslovak movie dedicated to our RAF War Veterans. This book was first issued in better 1960´ (The most powerful and just one political party was Communist party and Czechoslovakia and it wasn´t good times for commemoration of our war heroes from the West and not only.) This book was very popular among readers.
The Movie The Sky Riders describe the destiny of Czechoslovakian airmen in a bomber squadron in the RAF. It is non exists 276 Squadron. Despite the fact, that this squadron existed in the RAF, in the movie it was part of Bomber Command, that is a fiction. The real 276 Squadron was Air Sea Rescue.
