Hi
I hope you could help. There was a superb video on this site showing a Pilots view during a Lancasters display over the Derwent Dam ?? about 2009. Does anybody remember this and if so where could I see it again ??? :ok::ok:

Is that the one taken from the Helicopter with commentary
by the last Dambuster who was in the passenger seat ?

If so, it is on youtube as I was looking at it a few months ago.

There was a video posted on the BBC. Images taken from inside the cockpit of a Lancaster during a flypast to celebrate the 65th anniversary of the Dambusters.

In case you haven't found it, the video from the helicopter
is here from about 1.45.

The run shown in the U-Tube link is way too high to drop a bouncing bomb.

Joe Kmiecik flew one of the Lancasters in the "Dam Buster" movie. They flew in broad daylight and the camera stops were set to give the impression of night-time. He reckoned that to do it for real at night, against a defended target with lights on, you'd need to be half crazy.

Here's a photo linked from the 207 Sqn Association website that says it all . . .
