The lanc holds a special place in my heart as my uncle got shot down in one and killed in WW2 and my dad always talked about him ,only one out of 8 serving brothers that lost his life
Likewise, although not directly personal. My early days reading was mostly about 617 Squadron, Guy Gibson; Enemy Coast Ahead, etc. My family were all army but I have a keen interest in aircraft and the RAF. I stumbled by accident on a Mildenhall airshow, years ago, it was amazing, the US airmen all had BBQ stands and were dishing out real American burgers and hotdogs, we had a ball.
