And how can something so graceful and beautiful be designed to kill so many people in one go. My old man was an airframe fitter for the other 'V' bomber the Handley Page Victor and I think working on that and other wartime killing machines during the 2nd world war drove him to drink especially as he supported the Russian Communist regime, he never could get his head around it. Years ago at an air display at Radlett I once saw the Victor actually perform aerobatics including the Loop the Loop, amazing sight.
