More Lancasters

Eichhörnchen · 01-17-16, 05:04 AM

Some correspondence with my pal mako88sb has led me to this link for the Bomber Command Museum of Canada (Alberta), which also has an interesting section featuring aviation art:

http://www.bombercommandmuseum.ca/main_art.html

He very kindly sent me this link to video footage of their non-flying Lanc which I had known nothing about previously; it very much reminds me of the summer visits we make to see Just Jane run-up and taxy just up the road from here at East Kirkby, Lincolnshire:

Also featured here is some fabulous footage of the BBMF Lanc starting up and taking off, as well as an arrival and landing at Eindhoven. Thanks, mako

Great footage of the startup. It would have been nice to see them flying as well.
Thanks for sharing
