Yes she is a great old plane , everyone should see it. If you ever get the chance to see it make sure you do, you will enjoy every minute of it. For being a big plane it was tight quarters inside. Would have loved to have seen a couple hundred of those in the air at a time.

Periodically I am outside working on the lawn or on the Jeep and I hear the Merlins of the Vintage Wings museum's Spitfire, Mustang, Hurricane (and if it is a good day, their Corsair's big old radial!).

Default Lancaster Bomber

I have seen the Lancaster Nanton AB and was surprised to see how small it looked inside .I have to my knolage the only 1942 Fordson N tractor left that hauld feul and bombs to the Lancasters and Halifaxes .I am making a trailer for it to haul bombs and hope to take it to the Lancaster next time it comes out west .I am using 100 LB propane bottles for bombs and welding fins on the back end .Cant think of anything else that would be close to one .There is a trailer in Scotland for sale but it would cost a fortune to get it here .I also have a fuel tender for this Tractor .After the war I wanted to buy a Lancaster but my Dad said "NO" ,I still think he was wrong
