You can get someone to photocopy the mission reports from The PRO in Kew.

thanks Dave....Since I live in Ontario, Canada I guess I will have to try to contact someone at the PRO to do this for me...

thanks again..this will help alot. Its hard to imagine 21 years old flying 4 engine lancasters with a full payload of bombs flying to Berlin (9 hours according to my uncles log book) (or elsewheres...I don't know too many 21 year olds I would trust with my car) I guesss life was different then....
