Great pics. I've done some flying and I love older prop planes. I wish I could afford a Mustang, but I fly J-3 Cub taildraggers.

Two. The flying Lancaster is from BBMF at RAF Coningsby and the one on the ground will hopefully be airworthy again soon. The only other flyable Lancaster is in Canada.

A rare shot with both together.
