Country: | Yeah, it looks 'off' to me too... I bet they could have streamlined it, but post-war constraints were a big deal for aircraft makers then I guess...

Country: | Please don't speak about her like that, whilst your American bombers are running around dancing to jazz music at some over the top teenage party, the Lancaster is a Lady, always dignified and restrained, and never too fat
