Night after night, in the darkest days of World War II, the men of RAF Bomber Command flew out to risk death in the skies over Germany. In Bomber Crew, five grandchildren of bomber veterans are put through authentic training, to form the crew of a genuine World War II aircraft. Try our interactive game, and get a taste of the action for yourself.
This website also covers aerial warfare then and now; how to trace relatives who flew in the war, and career paths for would-be flyers.
