ISTR a story of PA474 leaving store at RAF Henlow being prevented by an unservicable tailwheel. As the aircraft was parked near the RAF museum’s Lincoln which was also stored there before going to Cosford and as the Lancaster and Lincoln were basically the same down the back end it was reasoned that a quick swop was feasible.
Is this the source for all these rumours of Lincoln parts on 474?
