Well having spent a great afternoon filming footage of the Avro Lancaster "Just Jane" at East Kirkby Airbase in Lincolnshire, here is the footage (in 4K). I've managed to keep the audio clean too with only a few muffled voices here and there and a few camera clicks).


Get ready to enjoy the sound of those Four "Rolls-Royce Merlin 24 engines" (1640Hp each)

Best Allied bomber of the WWII.  Only the US Liberator could compare.... :salute:

Very nice shots Mysticpuma. Those Merlins sound great, with or without ailerons.  :)

Oh, you see me go green with envy, that non-stop-grin of those lucky devils in the bomber! That's sound, heterodyning, no need to throttle up, it's full and rich anytime. First time I heard the four Merlin's in concert is 40 years ago  - from that day on any sports-car was a meagre squeaker to me. It never changed. GREAT thank you for sharing it in this high quality!
