Dambusters remembered

Oooops ... you meant the "original" Dambusters ... from the title I thought you meant:

VA-195 DAMBUSTERS, callsign "Chippy" ... the squadron got it's "Dambuster" moniker in Korea.

And if you think the Lancaster is "beautiful" ... you'd probably think the A-6 is a movie star.

OOooop again ... she already is !! :D

Saw on Wikipedia that Universal is shooting a re-make of the 1956 film 'The Dambusters'. Wonder if the dog's name will be the same???
