| Nice to be here It's nice to be among people who share the same passion of aircraft as myself. One thing I always heard growing up, was stories of the aircraft my grandfather worked on during the war. One plane that he worked on was the Halifax. Just a question for you alll. Was the Halifax a good bomber? and if so why does it seem like this bomber will stay in the shadows of the Mosquito and the Lancaster. thank you Last edited by grwhyte; 04-18-2007 at 07:49 PM.

| Welcome... The Halifax? One of the most under-rated bombers of WW2....

| Welcome aboard. PS - don't listen to this flyboyj clown, he just makes all sorts of nonsensical stuff up. Next thing he'll be trying to sell you the C-47 as the best aircraft of WWII.

| I saw a document/ memorandum the other night on TV signed by Harris in 42/43 calling the halifax a failure |
