The Dambusters raid a modern recreation, part 2.
In this movie we fly the mission at night. Taking off at 22.15, in May, as did the Lancaster AJ-J in 1943, to recreate the mission using a modern attack aircraft. See part 1, of this movie series, for a full briefing of the mission and especially the route. This is the route flown specifically by AJ-J, the Lancaster of Dave Maltby and navigator Vivian Nicholson. The logs of Vivian Nicholson were used to re create the route.
