Lancaster Mk II video.......in colour!
I am quite a big fan of the Hercules powered "Lanc",.....although more crashed running out of fuel than enemy action.

Tom,
Glad I could add to your post on the LAF !
Another tidbit re. Mk 2's in the RCAF:
A former ops records customer of mine, Rog Coulombe (AKA "The Berlin Kid"), holds the BC record for the most tonnage dropped on the capital. Roger made the Berlin journey 12 or 13 times in his 32 op tour......all of them in his trusty Lanc Mk2!
The last kite pictured in the vid is from Roger's sqdn, 426.
Cheers.
Paul
P.S.
Roger's mug's grandson is on the LAF.
