Reason: mis directed word
Shawn them n' us mentality does not prevail here.Preference would have been a luxury the RAF could not afford. If you sent pilots to do battle in Defiants, Fairey Swordfish and Battles.I should also add the Short Stirling with a ceiling of only 17,000ft. Is there really choices to be made?. That said. Every type of aircraft was appreciated , Including B-17s B-24s, even kites with bombs attached. Live in dark times and take all help you can get. |
