Bomber Force by Nicolas Trudgian features Lancasters of 617 Squadron setting off on a mission. The tension is electric; slowly they climb to circle the airfield while the entire squadron gets airborne. Below, the countryside reverberates with the sound of roaring Merlin engines. Nicolas Trudgian recreates the familiar scene in a stirring painting which captures all the awesome reality of the mass take-off by RAF Lancaster bombers of 617 Squadron. Each copy in Nicolas Trudgian's Limited Edition, Bomber Force, is individually signed by four highly decorated World War II pilots who skippered the heavy RAF bombers over Germany: Group Captain Roy D. Max Squadron Leader Malcom 'Mac' Hamilton Flight Lieutenant R.E. Knights Squadron Leader T. Kearns. Published in 1995 Edition Size: 500 Overall Print Size: 31 x 24 inches
