Re: New Lancaster from HobbyKing.
"Grand Slam" was one serious bomb -- ten tons in weight. Desinged for high-level precision bombing on deeply implanted facilities or bridges. First documented drop (practice) had some wag suggesting that the main camera be placed at Ground Zero. Resulting crater was 500 feet in diameter and 30 feet deep. No camera ever found. Other cameras outside of the blast range showed a dead-center drop.
I'd want to convert the Lanc to the Dam Buster version or the Lancastrain civil transport.
