That's the first time I've ever seen a picture of the "other" flying Lancaster. I live in Lincoln UK and see the "City Of Lincoln" Lancaster quite a few times a year. I just stop and stare whenever I see it as it's a treat everytime. Thanks for posting those pictures.

I've never seen the UK Lanc. Any pics?

If I get out to Britain this summer or the next (it's in the plans pending funds) can you recomend the best Air Show (for warbirds) to attend?

I'd love to see the Phantom in person. I believe it flew with 550 squadron? My Grandfather was a 550 Lancaster pilot so I'd love to get back to the UK for a fact finding mission. I know he flew from Killingholme at some point.

I wish I had better photos of it from this trip but winter is obviously the ideal time to do the annual

These are from summer 2010 when the Lanc came to Abbotsford, BC. Not the best pics, I was just kinda starting out with the camera lol







For a $5 donation you can get inside and climb from front to rear. My gf at the time took this of me.
