One for Bryan (Lancastertastic)

Multiman:
There's a very good book on the Lancaster by Leo McKinstry "Lancaster: The Second World War's Greatest Bomber" for those interested.

I've also recently read "The Merlin:The Engine that won the Second World War", bit of a dry read but some fascinating  facts about not only the Merlin but the history of Rolls Royce and how they got into aero engines starting with the "Eagle" in WW1. Most if not all of their aero engines were SOHC and named after raptors not magicians...

Not really into all that stuff but found that video a very interesting insight.
