A very kind soul has put online an exhaustive(?) visual list of all Lancaster AM Form 1180s. I’ve gone cross-eyed trawling through them all – resulting in the footballing analogy  of “hitting the post”.

17 April 43; Lancaster 1s W4279 and W4934 of 61 Sqn in collision and damaged at Syerston. 

W4279’s starboard outer was AM serial 395420. 

My engine plate is from AM serial 395421.

So close yet so far.

Nevertheless the forms themselves make fascinating and at times very moving reading.
