was a sight to stir the soul when two Lancasters flew over Goodwood aerodrome
on Friday - the sound of eight Merlin engines - in fact eleven if you add the
fighter escorts - was sheer music. It's a sight that is unlikely to be seen there
again but the pair have a few more displays before the Canadian Lancaster heads
back across the Atlantic for home in a month or so.
The
commentary on the display reported that fortunately the recent engine failure
on the Canadian Lancaster had been solved by fitting a Rolls Royce Merlin from
the BBMF stores but as the Canadian Lancaster had Packarge Merlins, all the ancilliaries
had to be changed too. Photo
