Lancaster (flypast)

Here is the famous Avro 683 Lancaster Heavy Bomber of WW2, this particular Lancaster is the last airworthy Lancaster remaining, City of Lincoln.

It is powered by 4 (1,280hp) Rolls-Royce Merlin XX liquid-cooled V12 piston engines, has an altitude capability of 21,400ft and a maximum speed of 282mph.

It carried a wide variety of bombs ranging from a load weight of 14,000lb to 22,000lb and also carried 8 303 Mark II Browning Machine Guns for defense, 2 in the nose turret , 2 in the dorsal turret and 4 in the tail turret. 

I had hoped to see a Hurricane and Spitfire fly with it but oh well.
