The Avro Manchester: The Lancaster’s Unlucky Older Brother...
The story of the Lancaster actually begins with the downfall of an earlier Avro aircraft that failed to live up to the high expectations that birthed it. Even in aviation circles, the Avro Manchester is an almost forgotten aircraft, making such a relatively small impact on the war it is completely overshadowed by its younger brother’s many accomplishments. And yet without the Manchester there would have been no Lancaster and one can only speculate how differently the Allied war effort would have been conducted without the Lancaster’s special abilities. In today’s episode we are going to look at one of those truly great, forgotten aircraft whose real contribution to history was to provide a step-up for the legend that was to come. This is the story of the Avro Manchester. Welcome to Wars of the World.
