DAMBUSTERS 80TH ANNIVERSARY
The June 2023 issue of FlyPast pays tribute to that most legendary of RAF operations – Chastise, aka the Dambusters raid. In a series of themed features, we mark the mission’s 80th anniversary, reflecting on the men who flew those fabled sorties and examining making of the famous 1955 film, The Dam Busters, starring Richard Todd as Guy Gibson

RECREATING THE RAID
Eric Quinney was selected to fly Lancasters in The Dam Busters film. Tom Allett recalls an interview with the late pilot, who died in 2019

ROLL OF HONOUR
FlyPast salutes all 133 men who flew into the history books with 617 Squadron on May 16/17, 1943 - the night of the Dambusters raid
