How to Taxi, Take-Off, Fly, and Fight in the Lanc: "Lancaster at War"

[Bearfoot]

Another excellent documentary on the Lanc. Again, *wonderful* detail!

 

Check out ~21:00+ for in-depth discussion on taxi/ground-steering.

Differential braking (hand-operated lever to effect brake pressure + pedals to effect differential) is used.

But it also seems that differential power was also used, and that this differential was fairly large (more on the left) and also standard SOP to offset tendency to spin left to keep the bird going straight on the ground.
