Yeow... Since I read about them, I've suspected one of the bravest Lanc
crews were the team that test-flew each one for the first time at the Avro
factory. They were doing six or seven a day for much of WWII.


Not to mention the women who flew them from the factories
to the front line squadron bases. I recall one RAF erk telling me
of the surprise he got when one landed and 2 very pretty girls
got out. He was still waiting for the air crew when he realised
they were the pilot and flight engineer.
