@ironpirites My uncle was flying officer (Navigator) on a Halifax. He was shot down on March 24/25 1944 over Berlin. Porcupine Sdq 433 from Northern Ontario. I wish i could of ask my mother for more info before she passed away 15 years ago. God Bless all these courages souls that gave their lives. Like u said, flying in total darkness must of been a nightmare is sooo true. That night in March over Berlin must of been a nightmare for all the crew...RIP

Thankyou so kindly for a truely remarkable video. Those four RR Merlins sound fantastic and I am stunned to as why anyone could even have the disrespect to dislike this video. When watching this, I took a few minutes to imagine the shear courage of those servicemen flying these machines, unaided across Europe and having to be alert at all times for German fighters. A big salute to all you guys. Thankyou.

My Dad was an RCAF Lancaster Pilot in WW2. Now I can see what it was like to fly in a Lanc, except of course for.....being over a foreign country in the middle of the night trying to find the bombing target and getting shot at, and seeing your buddies drop out of the sky beside you.

Wonderful!!! The other one, over here in UK, belongs to the Battle of Britain Memorial flight, part of the RAF, which does not permit those lucky enough to get a ride to take pictures or video.

@TBM3EAvenger it was about 50mins in the air , to feel this flight you need to have a computer speaker system thats turned up loud enough it vibrates the floor and you cannot hear someone next to you if you were to try and talk to them
