Lancaster cockpit

Went to the Imperial War Museum yesterday as it was raining and got a couple of shots of the Lancaster Cockpit

Ah, the second one is interesting.
We happened to have a TV production first out on Sunday and Monday night on the bomber attacks on Dresden in the night from 12 to 13 Feb 1945, and I think it was this plane they were flying? Some scenes from inside the planes looked similar.

Your probably right, the Lancaster was the main RAF bomber.

I was reading about that in the Sunday papers. Apparently it has caused a bit of controversy in Germany, especially the story about the British pilot and the German nurse.
