Looks possible for me-provided the wifie’s not on night shift on the Friday. I’ll know nearer the time.
Does anyone know what Mr. Weeks’ plans are for the Lanc and what sort of condition its parts are in?
Has anyone in the know contacted him to enquire?
Aw go on Daz!
This one was sent to me by Ageorge for posting.
Where’s the photo then Daz?
I want to see the wee guy in the cardigan!
Isn’t that the 7 8ths scale thing that appears at the East Fortune air displays?
Don’t remember the Swordfish at Strathallan being on display.
Hope this one works.

Har har!

I’d be delighted.
If you send me a p.m. with your e mail address on it, I’ll send them on.

Looks better on the end of a Lancaster thogh!

We’ll know who to blame for all thevtraffic jams then!!:D
Sounds about right Al.
I didnt do the sensible thing and write on the back of the photos!

😮I’ve just realised I have a photo of the Lanc (and me in front of the Magister that used to be there) from many moons ago.
If I can look it out, I’ll try sticking it up!
PS – I know the collection had a few Spitfires there (those already mentioned) but did they ever have one on display? I think it might have been there that I sat in one – either that or East Fortune :confused:
Think it must have been East Fortune.
I was lucky enough to sit in it as well.
As far as I remember, Strathallan never had a Spit out on display.
It’s an ex-collection. It has ceased to be.
Sold off in the early 80’s.
Great pity. Location didnt help matters. As somebody else said earlier, it gave rise to a lot of the warbirds now on the circuit, and others now in museums.
Shame about that Lanc though. Still upsets me to look at these photos.
Radar.
I’ve got it too!
Sent scan to Ageorge-it’s not a very good quality image.

Reckon that’ s about it.
I have got a Lanc rear turret photo and one more Lancaster shot, which Ageorge posted on my behalf before. Can’t find the original just now.
Hope you found them of interest.
