There's a Hastings at the Allied Museum in Berlin. Handsome beast, and although they were only ready for the last couple of months of the airlift they contributed a startlingly large percentage of the UK contribution through some function of (capacity, speed, all-weather capability, serviceability)

Closest we could get was Hyde Park but it was still very impressive:

Very nice photo ... the sun on the wings and the clouds really make it "Tick VG"

Thank you!

Agreed - perfect!

Ahh, a Top-side pass!

Shame there’s not a better way to keep the inside of the Lanc cool, she always looks somewhat better with the 2 upper hatches fitted?

Sorry to intrude- we didn't get aything better on the Shack - Just a bit more detail on the hatches. Mac

H Peacock and Mactism1 - one lives and learns, watched the Lancaster display countless times over 45+ years and I never knew they did that with the hatches!

That's what Photoshop was invented for. :O

I've just seen a couple of videos showing an unusual object flying over the the Red Arrows as they approached the Mall during the fly past. Firstly - this was described as a "UAP" not a "UFO" and secondly - the videos were recorded simultaneously by seperate camerman. One was on the ground near Buckingham Palace and the other was the SKY TV helicopter over the Thames but shooting the same scene. I'm thinking this might be the first time such an event was independently photographed?



Fancy a Tic Tac ?

You'll not get any argument on that from me! :-)
