Smile Big Hello

Hi to everyone here...

Like many I'm sure, I've lurked for a while and decided to join.

My Grandfather was a Bomber Pilot in the Second WW and then went on to train after the war. He retired and spent many hours telling me fascinating and riveting stories of flying and missions during WW2.

There are thread locations for all of those separately, with the exception of magazines. But there are sections for manuals and for pictures. What did your grandfather fly?
