The men who flew them during WW2 were Brave indeed.

Such a magnificent sight to see, went there on the Saturday and the whole airshow in general was absolutely brilliant

Lanc had a much bigger bomb payload . A squadron of Lancs was prepared for dropping the Atomic bomb, the B29s in special build were touch and go if they were going to be ready on time. The RAF did get a few B29s post war, they had early variants of the B17 during the war .

The lanclooks like it could teach the fortress a few lessons... Maybe just bias.
