1,000 plane daylight attack on Essen.
1,000 plane daylight attack on Essen. Pilots reported that the clouds were pushed up by the heat and smoke rising from Essen. This still shows the disturbed cloud with smoke being pushed through. This picture was taken from 17,000 - 19,000 feet, so it can be realised what height the smoke had risen.
