Could be.  It has been many a moon since I talked to this chap, but he was 
real fond of the Lanc - said it saved his life more than once.  Wish I could 
remember the story he told of landing with two out on one side, but it has 
been too many years.  I did see him with a big grin on his face, sitting in 
the
cockpit when the bomber was in town...
