Runnymede Memorial, Surrey, England Lancaster Mk.III JB174 OF-S Hit by flak over the target area causing a violent explosion which blew off the nose and the outer part of the port wing of the aircraft and started a fire which quickly spread throughout the fuselage. The pilot's helmet was blown off so he was unable to order the bale-out of the crew.
