Pathfinders

- Season 1

(1972)

The freshly formed elite Pathfinders bomber unit is thrown immediately into action.

The Pathfinders take part in a secret raid on a German radar site.

Flight Lieutenant Elliott suffers from eye damage, and the Wing Commander himself takes command of his plane on an important mining mission.

The crew of Flight Lieutenant Conway has to bail out above Germany. The survivors attempt a perilous escape to friendly territory on foot.

The RAF Bomber Command men are much less than impressed to discover that they are flying with a bible-hugging 'Jonah' joining their crew...despised as very bad luck.

Flight Officer Stanton, a tough and demanding ace, is stretched to his limits as he has to fly his Lancaster back home from a mission without any crew.

Two spies are dropped into enemy occupied Netherlands, to prepare for a bombing raid on German radar sites.

Bad weather makes bombing raids on Germany impossible. Scientists are under pressure to come up with a navigational aid.

A young boy becomes an unusual ally for the crew aboard a Lancaster bomber.

The survivors of a bomber shot down over Germany realize that the secret of their navigational aid is compromised. Somehow they have to get a warning back to Britain.

Disgraced Corporal Tredinnick senses a possibility for redemption when one of the Lancaster bombers returns to base with a stuck bomb ready to go off.

A pilot for the Pathfinders decides he doesn't want to fly again in combat again. This creates issues because his father is a decorated hero and MP and a court martial would look bad for all.
