Lancaster file Hi Andy, After flick through I thought these may be of interest, regarding Canada Badged Lancasters, adding an oddity I had never seen before. Cheers Keith
"G" for George of 460sq This is the photo on my desktop of "G for George" of 460sq at the Australian War Memorial. I am always amazed in the close view at the size of the bomb doors. View attachment 2917
Videos featuring the mighty Lanc can be found at the link below. I understand more will be added in time. Lancaster pictures by Skintman1 - Photobucket
Here are copies of a photo I have signed by Ernie Taylor as well as scanned newspaper article about the Lancasters that were being built in Canada, not sure of the date, but I have been told that maybe the photo was the original that was brought in from England the original that the Canadian Lancasters were copied from, I am still trying to find out more information
I started this project trying to find out what year the photo was taken. The newspaper clipping is from the Toronto Star, but I do not know the date. I am trying to put some history to what I have.
Correct, the Lincoln was an improved Lancaster with higher payload, higher operational ceiling and (important for the Pacific) longer range.
