Bomber_County Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Standing in the garden literally 10minutes ago, the BBMF Lancaster flew straight over the top of me at 200 feet, the amazing sound of four Merlin’s, at I guess almost full throttle was beyond words. With the 80th anniversary approaching, the BBMF are doing a tour of Lincolnshire to commemorate. https://www.raf.mod.uk/display-teams/battle-of-britain-memorial-flight/news/battle-of-britain-memorial-flight-commemorate-80th-anniversary-of-op-chastise1/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Having been up close to a Lancaster with 4 running Merlins, I know what you mean Phil. It's really an awesome sound and very distinctive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerWomble Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Lived near Holmfirth 15 years ago , BBMF Lanc used to fly up the valley , over Ladybower Res and then turn right for Scamptom . My guess the guy piloting it was haiving the day of his life, and why not ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
