Summary

'How to Fly a Second World War Heavy Bomber' describes how a pilot was instructed in flying a four-engined heavy bomber using the original Pilot's Notes for the Avro Lancaster, Handley Page Halifax and Short Stirling. Using manuals produced during the war, the Pilot's Note's were aimed at the pilots who flew the aircraft on missions deep inside enemy territory. Everything was included, from bomb jettisoning to flying on two engines. This book compares the respective cockpits of each heavy bomber, explaining the differences and nuances of how they flew.
