    How can a plane be so beautiful? There must be something wrong with me. Chadwick was a genius.

    What a beauty; gives me goosebumps every time I see and hear her. My brother was a skipper on "Lankys". Sadly passed now. Thank you for the video.

    Amazing ...My Dad was a gunner on these during WW2. Saw this do a fly over at the Royal Wedding about 11 years ago..

    Very moving sight, it's hard to imagine that the brave young men that flew them weren't even old enough to hold a driving licence, truly the best of a generation.

    The roar of those Merlin engines is just a sound to behold. What a beautiful aircraft and a perfect complement to the spitfire.

    Just beautiful. The Lancaster was a true beauty of an aircraft, and at the same time she was grimly functional. She did her job well. Thanks for sharing.

    Never tire of watching and listening to those merlin engines. Luckily I live in Hamilton Canada and see "our" Lanc now and again when she flies. I am hoping to win a big draw prize to buy a ride in her. It's on my bucket list !

    Flying history! Awesome and beautiful. I couldn’t imagine a massive formation of a few dozen of these thundering overhead on a bombing raid. Priceless 👍!

    Had two Lancasters fly over the house at low level a few years ago. Wow, what a racket from those engines. Beautiful sight though.

    Incomparable. Before Canadian 'Vera' came over here, I was in Canada just 2 months before her visit, and went to the Museum to see her. I stood under her huge open Bomb doors, and chatted to her crew; a really helpful cheery bunch of Guys. I don't suppose we will see her here again, not in my lifetime anyway.

    What an awesome Aircraft. My Dad made wings for the Lancaster during the War.

    Saw this beautiful plane over my garden while departing the airport for its return flight back to home base. I must say what a beautiful sound and sight and exciting seeing this ww2 bomber

    one of the few things I miss as an ex-pat is sights like this - especially as I used to live down the road in Westcliff

    Best airport to fly in and out of. I can park my truck less than 50 yards from the plane. Got lucky last flight parked right in front of the terminal. Here in Kalamazoo we get frequent B-17's and 24 liberators. They buzz my house occasionally knocking pictures off the wall.

    What a sight to see a real classic of the sky ,,why they can’t make these planes for nostalgia is beyond me ,,there’s only a very few left it would be great for the next generation to see what they have missed ,,who of my generation wouldn’t give there right arm to go fly in these I’m 62 I know I would ,,A for Apple are you there you can begin your run now
