and how high was it, I've seen this Lanc before

 

[Hot Space]

About 200/400 feet I guess. I knew it was it before I saw it............those Merlins were just purring away 8)

[evangilder]

Nothing quite like it!

 

[Hot Space]

Yep, just a shame I didn't have the Camera with me

[the lancaster kicks ass]

damn you HS!! i've never seen the BBMF lanc i've been to two airshows where she was supposed to be putting in an appearance, both times the weather prevented her showing..........

 

[Hot Space]

It comes over Northampton maybe 4 or 5 times a year m8 but I guess that's because we're not to far from Duxford and the like.

Sounds like it was great!
One day I'll see a Lanc fly! I must!

 

[evangilder]

It really is a site to behold. The funny thing is that when I saw it fly, I wasn't that interested in WWII airplanes. I only snapped off a couple of pictures. Now I wish I had taken more.

 

[Hot Space]

The sight of it is great but the sound is even greater 8)

[mosquitoman]

I can agree with that! I've seen PA474 take off over my head at RAF Coningsby

 

[Nonskimmer]

I hate you all!

 

[evangilder]

Can someone find a clip of one flying before NS pops a vein in his forehead?!

 

[Hot Space]

Can't find a Vid, but here's the next best thing though:

Good links fellas. Lanc I've seen that fly-past one before, and it's a decent one.
Nothing would beat seeing the old girl in person though.

I never, ever thought I'd admit this to myself, but sometimes I wish I lived in Ontario.
Scroll about halfway down the page to see a small video of the Canadian Lanc doing a fly-past with Ed Russell's privately owned Spit Mk. IX. The video ain't the best quality, but it's enough to make me wanna cry.

God, I wanna see that big bird in the air!

[GermansRGeniuses]

Yeah?

Well, uhhh...


I saw an MB CL65 AMG and CL55 AMG within two minutes of each other, followed by an SL55 AMG a bit after today.
