Default The WWII diary of a Lancaster pilot.

I thought about putting this up in the Flight section at first, but then thought what the hell, that place is often overlooked

http://www.lancasterdiary.net/index.php


Basically, the notes of Bruce Johnston, Lancaster pilot serving with the RCAF during the later half of WWII.

Just stumbled over it, quite interesting stuff, well put together by the site. Check it out!

At least in the Flight section it'd stay on the front page for a year or two, here in GT it'll be gone in a day, covered in crap, a hello or two, lolcats, sexy women, a sunken boat, some jokes, and the odd post that is meaningful to somebody.

Hell, I'd put it in the Flight section as well as GT.
