Re: Lancaster MkII,LL689,115 Sq RAF
Icare-Thanks for that,I did not know about the location of the pilot's chute.but it does make sense. We see pictures of aircrew getting into the a/c carrying their chutes and presumably the pilots chute would already be in his seat, as was the case during my short service with the RAF .
We can only wonder that it was,nt there when he boarded, but it would have been very uncomfortable without it. We will never know. Thank you all for your help. |
