Phillip---I have a couple of other scripts to read this weekend, but will be excited to read yours in the following week. When---shall I say when rather than if---it becomes a film, I will be very willing to see it, simply based on such a fine synopsis. I do enjoy the 'Pacific Theatre' genre. I am an avid fan of World War One films, but do watch World War Two film nearly as often.
Hi Jane, Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm afraid the full script is not available but feel free to have a read of the 5 page sample I have uploaded to my profile. Fingers crossed for the future. Cheers again! Phil

Phillip: This is the best script sample I've read here at S32. Great imagery and you're weren't afraid to take your time setting up your opening. Some writers fear that; but I like a artful, novelesque opening. The cockpit scene had the flavor of authenticity and a big event pushing the plot forward in the first five pages. I can see why this one is winning awards.
Hi Phillip, I really do appreciate your thoughtful feedback and kind words :-)
