Imagine being the tail gunner dodging Jap 20mm cannon rounds coming at your face, no thank you!

This plane attended my local airshow last year (Geneseo). Beautiful aircraft.
I don't know why because I wasn't around during WWII but the crews who flew the SB2C called it the "son of a bitch, second class". Apparently they didn't think much of it.

Yep...the plane handled so bad the British and the Australians canceled their orders for it.
They made a lot of great planes in WWII but this wasn't one of them.
Still...it is a very beautiful piece of junk
