En-Route by Anthony Saunders. (B)- Cranston Fine Arts Historical Art

En-Route by Anthony Saunders. (B)


En-Route by Anthony Saunders. (B)

Flying at altitudes as low as fifty feet, Lancasters of 617 Squadron follow the Dutch canals en-route to Germany - their target, the mighty Dams of the Ruhr - on the night of 16th / 17th May 1943. At such low level the pilots of many of the specially modified Lancasters found their flying skills tested to the extreme as they were forced to take violent evasive actions when they encountered flak, large electricity pylons and tall trees, but several of the gunners in the crews still managed to shoot up and damage a number of trains on the way.
AMAZING VALUE! - The value of the signatures on this item is in excess of the price of the print itself!
