This was taken on 11 Sep 2013 at the Kinema, Woodhall Spa. It was the launch of Finding the Pathfinders film, by Sharon Cannings and Martin Nichols. It follows the moving journey of PFF, 97 Squadron veteran, Percy Cannings to track down the crew members he served in Bomber Command with.
The BBMF Lancaster PA474 honoured us all with a stunning ultra low Flypast, which set of car alarms in the car park. Percy Cannings and his daughters, Sandy and Sharon, can be seen in the clip. It was also Percy's 90th birthday.
Percy flew 47 operations with Bomber Command - he is one of the veterans featured in the book Riding in the Shadow of Death, by Chris Keltie.

Spent time as a young boy in the early 1960's with an elderly lady that lived in France under German occupation, and she said the sound of a Lancaster bomber flying was the sound of FREEDOM!!.Never forget!

@MikeT-TheRetiredColonel 4 года назад

Love the sound of the Lancaster, and I'm a damn Yank! Greetings from across the pond :)

Make your way north to Hamilton, Ontario and see Vera fly... she's the highlight of the airshow every father's day weekend, has a B-25 Mitchell off her wing, and always comes with an escort of Spitfires, Hurricanes and Mustangs along with any other WW2 birds who can find the time.

Hello from Hamilton Ontario... your lovely bird sounds just like our Vera. Nothing like hearing those four Merlins thundering overhead. One of the most terrifying things I've ever imagined was when someone said "imagine a thousand of those flying over all at once, dropping bombs."

@duggiebader1798 7 лет назад

I see a Bomber Command vet with the DFM and the Aircrew Europe Star among others. Brave doesn't come close to what those guys went through. It was nye on suicidal considering what they were up against.

@tim7052 2 года назад

Yes! Today they talk of sporting "heroes"!! IMHO not one sporting "hero" ever experienced what Bomber Command aircrew (and the ground attack Typhoon IB pilots) did during WWII: of that the GREATEST generation of young men and women that ever lived!!

@cycleSCUBA 2 года назад

Those boys did what they did out of a combination of duty to their King and Country, and also a strong sense of camaraderie amongst the crews, a 'we're all in this together' attitude. How many nowadays would do what they did? I wonder.

@tim7052 2 года назад

The Rolls Royce Merlin engine is undoutedly the sweetest sound in aviation!! Just about EVERYBODY can recognise it!!

@laurajames4642 Год назад

@williamgardiner4956 3 года назад

I grew up on an RCAF station where my father was stationed and one absolutely NEVER forgets the sweet sound of a Merlin engine. Loved the Lancs and the Mustangs and those engines were the sound of music. God bless those that flew them.

Many years ago I was shooting (archery) south of Croydon when a Lanc flew right over us at about 1000 feet! What an amazing sound!!

@johnladuke6475 3 года назад

Almost certainly that exact Lanc. There's only two still flying, and Vera doesn't cross the pond very often.

bloody luverly one of those planes once a year takes off from Bournemouth airport. hangs low almost tree top height as it flys over the top of my house before he fly's higher and joins in at the air show over Bournemouth beach. i tell you what when they fly low over your house you can really feel the sound of the engines on your body. i don't know why that happens but i felt it more than one time.
