They perfect their flying skills on the Beech and Harvard, classic World War II training aircraft, before coming together as a crew on the B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bomber. For one of the pilots, the series culminates in the chance to take the controls of the legendary British bomber, the Avro Lancaster. During training the crew make some remarkable discoveries about their grandfathers and about the men who flew with Bomber Command. The series features moving testimony of 25 surviving veterans of Bomber Command. Thousands of bomber crews made an extraordinary contribution to the war effort in the face of terrible odds. Night after night, they put themselves in danger as they went on bombing raids, taking the war to Germany when no one else could. More than 55,000 airmen never returned; nearly 10,000 became prisoners of war. Yet their contribution to the war effort has been frequently overlooked. Bomber Crew has at its core the story of the men of Bomber Command and their extraordinary endurance in the face of terrible odds; the program explores what motivated and sustained them through repeated, and highly dangerous, operations.
