Avro Lancaster Drawings - ID Help!!

I have four drawings at home of an RAF Avro Lancaster carying the markings DL-F or OL-F, drawn by an artist whom I believe to be John 'Lamdell' or 'Laundell', however the signature is dificult to decipher.

The story behind these drawings: the artist was a crew member on board this aircraft during WW2, and produced these sketches during his down time. The drawings were later gifted to my mother. They are originals, clearly, done in charcoal, pastels and pencil, and really are very good, leading me to believe the chap may well have had a career in art.

I've conducted a search of the web in order to trace the Sqn to which the aircraft belonged, and the artist, but without joy. Anyone able to shed any light?!

Thanks!
