    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.

    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 β€œIt 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.

    β€œWe 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.”
