Airplane of the Day - Douglas A-20 Havoc


Douglas A-20 Havoc - The Soviet Union's Favorite American Bomber
Dark Skies

I don't particularly care for the narrator's tone. Sounds like he is trying to make everything intense and ominous. Maybe that works for some people.

I am sure I have heard about the A-20 before, but nothing really stood out until Dark Skies tells us how the aircraft were ferried to Russia. They started with a route that took them to South America, across the Atlantic to Africa, up to Iran and hence to Russia. The second route took them across Alaska and Siberia using the Alaska-Siberia Air Road.
