    Another photo charter at East Kirkby organised by Neil Cave allowed another chance to see Lancaster NX611 "Just Jane" in action. Fabulous!!
    My photos can be found here http://paulgildersleve.smugmug.com/...itage/31179918_2P4Mpn#!i=2697886874&k=t4FVMJW

    Hopefully one day "Just Jane" will be joining the other uk lanc in the air, that, for me will be a sight never to be forgotten, theres only one thing better than 2 airworthy lancs, 3 all in formation :)

    oh i dont know, either fit her with long range tanks, or route her via alaska, russia, europe ,that would scare the germans, seeing a lanc over Berlin again :) its not impossible, and if the CAA dont want to give her an fitness to fly give her a US registration
