The other flying Lancaster is due to visit the British Isles from its base with Canadian Warplane Heritage at Mount Hope Airport, Hamilton, Ontario, and both Lancasters are expected to fly together at the Scottish Air Show at Prestwick on the first Saturday of September.
Alex, you are correct. As part of news coverage around D-Day, there was a nice piece about the Andrew Mynarski V.C. Lancaster preparing for the big trip from Ontario to England. We used to live very close to the airport in Mount Hope, and grew accustomed to being over-flown by the Lancaster. I miss hearing it thunder overhead. I can only imagine what the two of them would sound like.
