    The Avro Lancaster.
    This model, 'G for George', was commissioned by Tony Hooper (who sadly passed away this year) and built by Brian Hutchinson.
    Now proudly owned and displayed by Jack Mitchell.
    The model itself is 1/6 scale 17ft span.

    And uses an air operated undercarriage.
    This model is controlled by Futaba systems and Hitec servos.
    No gyro used.

    my father's brother in the Royal Canadian Air Force was lost on a Lancaster, never to be found. We live near the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum near Toronto, which flies one of only two Lancs still flying - (C)VRA FM213. My father was alive to see its first flight and it was very emotional. I see the plane often and always think of my uncle and the others who failed to return from doing their duty. Bless them all for the life of freedom they gave us.

    My grandfather was a tail end Charlie in a Lancaster

      It looked great and I know the pressure one is under flying something like that but more rudder usage on the ground would have made for a more realistic takeoff and roll out.
      Great stuff overall!

    An incredible engineering achievement and tribute to the flyers that flew Lancs, taking the war to the enemy nearly 80 years ago. Of the 7,377 aircraft built, 3,736 were lost , over 3,200 in action. A great tribute to the design and the women and men that built them in Britain and Canada. I was a Lord's a number of years ago and had the honour of seeing 2 Lancasters fly over as a tribute to Bomber Command and the 55,000.that lost their lives. Amazing that 2 Lancs are still airworthy, and many more in taxiing State of preservation.

      I'm amazed that 'G' for George made over 90 missions. My father's cousin Roy was a bomb aimer and never made it back from his first mission. His Lancaster was shot down south-west of Stuttgart killing the entire crew. They now lie alongside each other in a war cemetery in southern Germany. Roy left a widow and two children under four years of age.

    Fantastic example, amazing build 💪🏻 A good friend David Fellowes (now passed) was a Rear Gunner with 460 Sq based at RAF Binbrook. He did the full 30 missions, flew some additional missions over Northern France in preparation for the landings and flew in Operation Manna at the end of the war.
    460Sq also tested the AGL turret, but he never used it in anger. In all his missions, he had just one encounter with a Night Fighter. He fired-off a few rounds and that was it - Lucky Crew 🙏🏻
    He had some great stories to tell.

    Being a larger scale model it flies well.
    I have been fortunate enough to see a genuine Lancaster flying over here in the UK a few times. It comes over Santa Pod drag strip on occasions and gives us all a wee display.
    Have also been lucky enough to see the 'Sally B' B17 flying a few times back in the '90s.

    I don't know exactly how low you managed to fly the Lanc at 5:28. I've worked out that a scaled height of 10 feet or 3m would give an approximation of the bombing run height (60 feet) flown by the Dambusters back in 1943.

    That take-off jinking had me thinking of the mass take-offs of bombers in Catch 22 (Alan Arkin version)
