bombsight

For this week’s cover story on the Georgetown arts collective Equinox Studios, I got sucked in by Norden bombsights.

As a bomber, of course, it also contained bombing gear and bombsights, and all of this needed maintenance and loading.

Although early raids proved that the Japanese homeland could be reached, they failed to hit their targets as problems persisted with the Norden bombsight.

Nazi spies kidnap an aircraft mechanic and try to make him talk about a new bombsight.

One thing is, however, guaranteed: some poor souls will be at the other end of those bombsights and rifle barrels.
