It doesn't take the ground crew long to get to work on one of the Halifax bombers used by the RCAF group in bomber command once the big bombers return to their base after an operation over Germany. Swarms of skilled tradesmen clammer over the machine, checking everything to make sure it will be serviceable when called upon again. Regular checkes are made each aircraft and none leaves on an operation unless it is fully serviceable. DND photo. This photo was added on 4 February 2025, and has since been viewed 125 times. |
