Title: Last two Lancaster bombers still flying will come together
Post by: Bludy on April 16, 2014, 12:47:17 PM

Seems the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum (CWHM) will be flying their prized Avro Lancaster to fly with the Royal Air Force Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (RAF BBMF) Lancaster for a month in the UK.

Can you imagine seeing and hearing them flying in formation...

 I've seen the Canadian lanc several times!  I was considering going to watch her takeoff for the UK.

 Although I think I'd rather go see her a few days before,when they do the runups and checks! Most incredible thing to hear,4 merlins purring..... :x

The Lanc is a beautiful airplane, without a doubt. And whenever I see it my fingers get twitchy as I anticipate easy kills.

If they collided it'd be all over for lanc fans  :(

The lanc is a nice plane, good share  :)


Although I am more fond of her American Counterparts  :)
