Capt. Pugwash,
Great photographs, and good to know that items created during previous restorations haven't been discarded. I know that after our 6 month mainplane restoration, there was a follow up which did a similar job on the rear fuselage and tailplane. As someone whose father in law served, as groundcrew on 617 Squadron, I was delighted to give him a wander around PA474 one weekend during our overhaul. Our "Lanc" means a lot to many people, and it's return to flight is a matter of importance. Lets hope that the extended damage reported by Nutty can be quickly overcome, and the aircraft returned to display flying,my Seotember hopefully.
