Putting in a turret of a Sterling in a Lanc thread. Was labelled Lanc but other pic showed it was a detail of a Sterling
 
Ah, yes, the extremely rare, four engine, twin fin Avro Wellington - don't see many of them around !!
It is a What if... Wellington. What if the wimpy had 4 engines and a much bigger bomb load. Strangely enough it looked like a Lanc. Who knew?

The other side back ground you see a Dreiling Harvard, now that is some thing.

This is a picture of the very rare Avro Lincaster, or Lancoln, whichever suits; it was built as Lincoln RF342 but was modified for trials post war and was fitted with the nose section of Lancaster TW911. It has a long post-operational history being an exhibit at several now defunct aviation museum collections around the UK. It still exists and is currently in Australia in bits awaiting restoration of some form or another.

Ah, but you can't tell its got twin fins, Terry, not in this view. What if it has the Wellington's single fin and has just been fitted with the nose of a Lancaster, just like our Lincoln a few pages back...

Hahahaha...oh wait...your serious...
 
Although a single control column and yoke, the Lanc could be fitted with a second yoke, and rudder pedals, if required, for conversion training, and, in current use, to comply with some rules.
The BBMF Lanc has this arrangement. In the pic above ( Post # 155 ), look at the right side of the control column, behind the yoke, and the attachment for a second control yoke "arm" can be seen.
