The reason why the A26 was included is a mystery [other than an editor that doesn't have any interest in aeroplanes].

Painful to watch.....

The DC4 pilot was a law unto himself wasn't he? Flew at a height He decided was suitable. Released the bomb late and as a result the bomb hit the dam with far too much speed and his comment at the end said it all. I would like to have seen him do the drop at night with gunfire raking the aircraft.........

"We showed those Englishmen we can hit it with the first shot."

Big mouth Captain Arnie.........

Biased because my Father worked for Barnes Wallis and Vickers during WW2
