It seems McKinstry is a little bit high for the terminal velocity of the Tallboy but 750 mph is pretty fast.
Lancaster is not a bad book - over 500 pages of it. It's well written but there are a number of errors. However, it's still worth reading particularly because of the first-hand descriptions form just about everyone involved with the plane including those on the other side.
