Just wondering if anyone would know if Lancaster NG132 had a name or any Nose Art ?
A good friend of mine, sadly passed away, flew this A/C on most of his tour with 550 Squadron.
Apart from his Uniform, I also have his ‘Good Luck’ charm,
a small stuffed Black Felix Cat which hung from the inside of his canopy on every Op !
It would be nice to find more about this Lanc.
Cheers
Jules
