clive_t Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Not sure if this is available outside the UK (judicious use of a VPN may prove useful) but on the BBC Sounds app this evening I was recommended to listen to the soundtrack of an actual Lancaster raid over Berlin, originally broadcast on 4th September 1943. 'Commentary' courtesy of Winford Vaughan-Thomas. An absolutely rivetting 30 minutes' listening... www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b0076rvh 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TempestV Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Thanks for sharing this, I really enjoyed listening to it. It was so noticeable how the pitch of his voice rose as they approached and penetrated the flak, really powerful and evocative. cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyot Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I think this was the soundtrack used for the virtual `experience' at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, which was apparently done by the BBC? It was superb,.... and felt like you were actually in a Lancaster! https://m.facebook.com/CanadianWarplaneHeritageMuseum/posts/10157809328496280?comment_id=10157822952376280 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
