    Those engines are One of the sounds that won our freedom

      Those sounds only existed because of the men who serviced the engines and kept them flying. Remember the people first.

    Great video clip. My dad was an m/u Lancaster gunner. Flying with 101 Squadron. 32 completed missions March - September 1944. He along with my 2 Uncles were WW2 veterans. All are long passed. I’m a retired veteran myself, now in my 70s. Thanks for the video.

    Had a 60 minute ride on that Lanc a few years back. Only cost me $2500 bucks. Worth every penny.

    The Lancaster often limped back on three rolls royce engines instead of four. A very sturdy plane which the crew loved. My Dad was one.

      Apparently, there’s only two in the world. The UK has one and Hamilton has one. I just looked it up. I hope I’m wrong. I’d like to see more of them around. Got to preserve history.

      There is 2 Lancasters in the UK. They where flying in formation a couple of months ago. Can't remember the actual time frame.

    As a Canadian, if you visit another country, you do not have your Canadian 'rights' in that other country.
    Try it in Russia or Singapore and you will find that you have no "rights."

      Thanks to OUR Hamilton "Warplane Heritage Museum Volunteers who painstakingly restored VERA to Flying Condition as 1 of ONLY 2 Flying Lancaster
      Bombers in the World 🌎!
      You can Hear VERA Flying over the Hamilton Escarpment Long Before you can see Her with the Rumbling of the Merlin Engines!
      Flights can be booked at a Very Reasonable price!
