Hi All
I loved the videos and also of the Spitfires, boy that bought back memories of my visit to Duxford some years ago watching those old planes and also being to actually talk to one of the pilots and touch his plane. ![]() ![]() ![]() Cheers Tony :no4

If you want to go to the other extreme of emotions, search YouTube for B-29 frozen in time. It's nearly an hour of video, and only the first 50 minutes or so are enjoyable. After that comes the sad bit. Some aviation enthusiasts found a B29 in a remote and snowy location, got it ready to fly out, then the APU broke free from it's mounting while taxiing, and the whole aircraft burnt to the ground/snow. Made me feel sick watching the disaster.

If anyone is interested, The Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum has come out with a documentary on the voyage of VERA to England.

hopefully we will see more than 1 Lanc in the air over Canada in the future with the Windsor Lanc under restoration and the Edmundston Lanc being sold out west and planned to be moved this summer , this being in very good condition and also a veteran with missions over Germany, spoke with a old boy at the airport there and he told me up until about 6-7 years ago the engines were run up every summer, lets hope,

Had the chance to be up close to V-Vera twice, at CWH Swing Out to Victory dance. Gives shivers to just touch it. With the swing band playing in front of her in the hanger it was like a time warp.
