Good eye…I missed it in the dark shadows..

How do they insure the aircraft that partcipate in the show? Are the owners responsible for getting their liability insurance or is it acquired via the organizers at Brunty?

Was the DH Comet active?

Peter,

I guess the panel is pretty complete then,,did anyone ever consider removing the internal fittings to protect and store them until she could be kept in a better environment?

Peter have any of the instruments been removed and stored to be installed at later
date?

Last RCAF Lancaster Service.

The RCAF Lancaster’s were finally retired from the RCAF on 1 April 1964, after serving for more than twenty years. A number of these were preserved across Canada in different schemes.

That does sound like encouraging news Peter, will the lancaster be located near the Mosquito that is in the Airport area? I was told of one being restored but I was never quite sure of it’s location.

I guess a few decisions will have to be made with a number of the taxible airframes being cared for in the UK.

As I guess someday it will become more difficult to keep them active and keep the next generation interested.

Hopefully she will taken of for a number of years to come,,whether that be in static or running condition….

Was the engine run on XM655 on the weekend a sucess?
