Avro Lancaster "Just Jane" at East Kirkby Airbase – Video of engine run and taxi

Well having spent a great afternoon filming footage of the Avro Lancaster “Just Jane” at East Kirkby Airbase in Lincolnshire, here is the footage (in 4K). I’ve managed to keep the audio clean too with only a few muffled voices here and there and a few camera clicks).

Get ready to enjoy the sound of those Four “Rolls-Royce Merlin 24 engines” (1640Hp each)

Really nice video. Well done!
Thanks for sharing that.

Kudos to the team at East Kirkby. She certainly looks the business.

Is the plan to eventually operate her from there?
