Has anyone got the pictures yet of the Lincoln fuesalage at Dunstable Yet,

I think we should start a new thread on Aircraft that may be hidden away.:diablo:

They were posted in a separate thread here

But what about the rest peter thats twisted and bent it’s scrap im afraid.
There is nothing more than i would like to see than a squadron of lancs taking on duxford for the flying legends you have one in canada and possibly another just jane to the sky here in the uk were in my opinion were they belong!
While your at it dig out the rest, but it may happen but i won’t hold my breath.
I like these aircraft but a time comes when scrap is just that. unless you can work wonders can you peter?

It may just be scrap (to some) but it is also history, as it is, where it is. It is also a memorial to those who died and is obviously treated as such by those in the immediate area. Just because it is unlikely to appear at Legends or Oshkosh does not (in my humble opinion) mean that it needs to be stripped of anything remotely collectable or saleable and the rest skipped.

Interesting, thanks for posting it. I see that the RAFM lists it as being a ‘repro’ …. ?

Agreed, another on my list of must re-read books along with First Light and Phoenix Squadron.

Thoroughly enjoying ‘Phoenix Squadron’ just now.

Very sad – a genuine hero.

Presumably the club are aware of its origins and it will not end up in a skip when its days as a glider store are over?

A Most Secret Squadron – Des Curtis DFC (the story of 618 Squadron)

Was the Augsburg raid a failure? I know it was costly but I thought that the target was (well) hit?
