Well, the aircraft is a Wellington, but I'm not sure what it is that they have on that trolley; a sea mine or a cargo container, maybe?

It's one of those new fangled jet engine thingies! We'll strap this baby that we got from ACME under the belly and light the fuse. Look out Nazi Road Runners!

Yeah, Yeah! And then fly for about 8 seconds until the engine burns out, and we go sailing over a cliff, holding a little sign with the word "OUCH!" on it.

Not sure about the aircraft (because I thought a Wellington was a 4 engine) but isn't the bomb one of those 'dam busters?" the Brits used in specialized attacks in Germany?

Hey Brady, these "Name that Unlimited" things are really neat. Keep 'em coming!

Regards all,

Rob

The Wellington was a twin-engined aircraft; the classic British four-engined bombers were the Short Stirling, the Handley-Page Halifax, and the Avro Lancaster.

The "Dam Buster" bombs, or bouncing bombs, were only ever used on the German Ruhr valley dams, and could only be carried by specially modified Lancasters, because the bombs had to carried externally and sideways, so they could spin, and bounce across the surface of the water.
