Sorry about the title thanks Peter for adding the question marks.
What engines does Jane have? They sound different to BBMF Lancaster’s
Merlin’s.
If you want to see the whole BBMF fleet go to Coningsby on the 20 April for display authorization day guaranteed warbird action π
Fantastic photos as always DCK
The TFC look like there working on a few things hopefully in time for legends :dev2:
Just seen on TFC Facebook Page that the Wildcat has new artwork.
Do know when she was last flown or had an engine run?
Hi there
Is the Dakota going to be out aswell as the Lancaster?
Sound like an intresting evening I might give it a go if I’m not to busy. π
Thanks Tony For the photo’s she looks likes it going to be a few years yet before she flies.I’ve just been on another fourm and there’s a pic of PS853 at Duxford last year. Is she still there?
Hi there I am coming out to Texas in october and I’m flying in the B17 from Galveston which museum do you belong to in Texas ?
That’s fantastic footage.Shame there’s no sound loved to have heard the Merlin roaring :diablo:
I don’t know if anyone has heard off it but I own a book called story of a Lanc from 1974?
Read This copyed from a link above. It tells you what they would do if it was to fly.
In an official Statement, spokesman for the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, Andrew Panton, said βIt is fair to say that we have been considering making moves to fly Avro Lancaster NX611 for some years now; it has been our ultimate ambition to be able to restore NX611 to an airworthy condition but also keep her accessible for the general public to enjoy the sights, sounds, smells and atmosphere created by a Lancaster. We must strike a healthy balance between keeping her in a good condition and also allowing the public to experience her.
βWe are sourcing four airworthy engines, acquiring parts from all over the world, undertaking feasibility studies, sourcing AP’s and the relevant paperwork – are all working towards enabling us to ‘push the button’ and let the Lanc feel air under her wheels once more. No move will be made until we are happy that we have built up enough parts and solved all the logistic issues.β
Well its seems to have gone very quiet they have three airworthy engines
