Ross McLennan's Dambusters Mission for the AAC

~S~ All,

The Dambusters Mission by Ross McLennan, made for the AAC has been uploaded here at the SOH. It should be available for download in the next couple of days.

"Ross McLennan put together this Dambusters Mission package for the AAC. It comes with one very special RAF 617 Squadron Lancaster, Missions and Scenery. There are Training mission and Bombing Missions to sharpen your skills. See if you have what it took to be one of the best bomber pilots in WWII. Many thanks to Ross for his time and efforts in making this Extra Special Dambusters Mission for the AAC and all of the CFS world to enjoy."

Here some screel shots.

Don't forget that the Dambuster Lancasters did not carry nose turrets!

- Ivan.

Err.....Sorry Ivan but you are mistaking the lancaster (special) with the special lancasters as used for the Dambusting raid.The Lancasters used for the dambusting raid had the mid upper turret romoved but the nose and tail turrets were as built. To allow the bomb aimer to.......well aim the bomb, and not have the legs of the nose gunner interfering with his duties, had special stirrups installed so that the feet of said gunner were well out of the way.The Lancaster (special) was the variant that carried the 22000lb Grand Slam and had the nose and mid upper turrets removed.

 

[Ivan]

Perhaps I misremembered regarding Lancasters.

There are certainly some differences between US and British practice. I was pretty sure that on a US bomber, the bombardier WAS the nose gunner.

Thanks.
- Ivan.

 

[womble55]

That I cant be sure of but with the Dambusting raid the nose gunner was required thoughout the mission.....must watch Richard Todd in his one and only great film again

Dambusters

~S~ All,

I just ordered a copy of the Movie and it should be here for Christmas. Tonight I think I will revisit BOB and ABTF.

Later,

[womble55]

It's hard to beleive but when the film was shot, the bomb was still on the secrets list. Also, in the long shots, see if you can spot the Avro Lincolns.

 

[Ivan]

When was this movie made? Usanians would call your "secrets" "Classified".

-Ivan.

Dambusters movie

~S~ Ivan,

The movie was made in 1954 and production of a remake is set to start next year.
