When the B29 came up to Montreal for a film shoot, they had big pans on the ground underneath each engine.. Apparently there`s a lot of leakage.

Beautiful film ! One of the concerning issues with the Hamilton Lancaster interestingly enough, is tires! Of course they just dont make them, and the cost to get a run going to supply the couple of Lancs flying is very very expensive

My personal favourite is the Mosquito..multi- role but seemed to do all them exceptionally welll Fast manouevable, could carry 2000 lbs of bombs vs the big slow B-17 -8000lb
