Wet Paint! PA474?

I’ve completely lost track, is it this winter or next that the Lanc is due a new coat of paint? Anyone know? The Linc Lanc Association journal used to give an idea of the plans for all the aircraft over the winter months, but doesn’t seem to anymore. 🙁

Two pics of her last summer, during the Farnborough International airshow:

Oh heck yes, I remember about the major service being put back a year now, silly me! Thank you!

Crikey, even in bits in a hangar she looks mean…

seem to remember that one of ‘the men in black’ that post here mentionned that the ‘major’ check (or whatever the RAF term for it is) was pushed back to next Winter, which is when the repaints normally happen..?

they seemed to be getting on with the winter servicing at CBY the other week after having their posh access staging delivered ! 😀
