Nice shots. Man there was no room in there. How tall are you kids. Also did that plane actually shoot 3 down, or is that swastika to show how many missions. I would think more runs then 3.
Anyway nice pics bro ty

It was very cramped! You don't realize how small it is when sitting at the computer. I could barely squeeze between the pilot and co-pilot seats when coming up through the hatch, then busted my head on the top turret mount. The catwalk through the bomb bay was so tight I had to turn sideways and hold my breath. The kids aren't that tall. I'm 6' 2" and had to bend over to get down the tube. I can't imagine what it was like with ten full grown men on board for hours.
