Good news: Virgin have plans to finally produce an OMD DVD scheduled for release in Spring 2004. Ideas and suggestions for content are welcomed either by email or on the OMD Forum. More details will be posted up here on the News page as it comes in.

Following on from the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing in 1945, the Enola Gay is to be restored and put on display. The Enola Gay is one of 80 historic aircraft that will be on display at the National Air and Space Museum's new facility in Northern Virginia.

The plane will be suspended eight feet off the ground allowing visitors to walk under the plane's bomb bay doors as well as being able to look into the cockpit. The display is more than likely to provoke controversy as the Enola Gay was responsible for dropping the first atomic bomb killing an estimated 140,000 people.

The plane has been meticulously restored after 300,000 hours of work and will be on display from December at the Udvar-Hazy Centre in December at Dulles International Airport. More info via the National Air and Space Museum website at www.nasm.si.edu
