Racks Under British Bomber Carry Big Load

Item

Running parallel nearly the whole length under the huge Stirling bomber used by The Royal Air Force are three bomb racks with trap doors which may be opened or closed as needed. In “bombing up” a plane for a raid over Germany, bombs are attached to a cable and hoisted into the racks by a motor.
