A Canadian C130 will be flying over at the same time ‘on a Maritime Patrol exercise.’

However Duxford isn’t a bomber airfield so its nowhere near the same thing! As to an escort – I guess the Canadians can escort her part of the way out with an Orion – were not quite so capable !

They could get one over on Just Jane if they got both Lancs to land and park them next to their static example.
I wonder if the RAF will give her an escort into UK airspace? If not they should do. A nice bit of good PR for the RAF with the opportunity for some interesting photo’s which they could sell for the Benevolent Fund?

Indeed – this was flagged up and discussed a week or two ago in the CWH thread and in the Duxford thread as well.
Hoping it will be confirmed .;)
