Very cool.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

Great post.  The illustrations are amazing and a tribute to Piotr's mastery.  Looking at them brought "Creaking Door" from Len Deighton's novel Bomber to life.

This article is now book-marked.

Ya, very enjoyable. I always found the Lanc strangely beautiful. It really shouldnt be with its boxy shape but it is. As a heavy Bomber design its probably peerless.

It is very symmetrical, and therein lies its beauty.
