OUR PILOTS

Spent five years in the air flying jet airliners on long haul routes for British Airways. For many years as senior training captains, they taught new captains how to fly 747s jumbos all over the World.

After crossing the coast we circle the British and Canadian drop zones and the Merville Battery - target for the whole 9th Parachute Battalion and captured by a single company led by Colonel John Otway. As with the American landings the gale scattered the mass drops and many paratroopers spent the night trying to find their own comrades and rally.

Everyone has a clear view as your guide explains the night's action in detail and where to look at each stage during the flight.
