    my father's brother in the Royal Canadian Air Force was lost on a Lancaster, never to be found. We live near the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum near Toronto, which flies one of only two Lancs still flying - (C)VRA FM213. My father was alive to see its first flight and it was very emotional. I see the plane often and always think of my uncle and the others who failed to return from doing their duty. Bless them all for the life of freedom they gave us.

      It looked great and I know the pressure one is under flying something like that but more rudder usage on the ground would have made for a more realistic takeoff and roll out.

    An incredible engineering achievement and tribute to the flyers that flew Lancs, taking the war to the enemy nearly 80 years ago. Of the 7,377 aircraft built, 3,736 were lost , over 3,200 in action. A great tribute to the design and the women and men that built them in Britain and Canada. I was a Lord's a number of years ago and had the honour of seeing 2 Lancasters fly over as a tribute to Bomber Command and the 55,000.that lost their lives. Amazing that 2 Lancs are still airworthy, and many more in taxiing State of preservation.

      I'm amazed that 'G' for George made over 90 missions. My father's cousin Roy was a bomb aimer and never made it back from his first mission. His Lancaster was shot down south-west of Stuttgart killing the entire crew. They now lie alongside each other in a war cemetery in southern Germany. Roy left a widow and two children under four years of age.

    Being a larger scale model it flies well.
    I have been fortunate enough to see a genuine Lancaster flying over here in the UK a few times. It comes over Santa Pod drag strip on occasions and gives us all a wee display.
    Have also been lucky enough to see the 'Sally B' B17 flying a few times back in the '90s.

    Fantastic example, amazing build 💪🏻 A good friend David Fellowes (now passed) was a Rear Gunner with 460 Sq based at RAF Binbrook. He did the full 30 missions, flew some additional missions over Northern France in preparation for the landings and flew in Operation Manna at the end of the war.
    460Sq also tested the AGL turret, but he never used it in anger. In all his missions, he had just one encounter with a Night Fighter. He fired-off a few rounds and that was it - Lucky Crew 🙏🏻
    He had some great stories to tell.

    I don't know exactly how low you managed to fly the Lanc at 5:28. I've worked out that a scaled height of 10 feet or 3m would give an approximation of the bombing run height (60 feet) flown by the Dambusters back in 1943.

    • @tbobborap1
      @tbobborap1  Před rokem +2

      The reason most modelers only use two bladed props on their scale models is because most models only have a single cylinder two stroke engine in it and these engines simply do not produce any where Near enough power to turn a scale 3 or 4 bladed prop fast enough to get the model off the ground. That is why they are turning 2 blade props to suit the power output of the single cylinder engine, Don’t forget the real aircraft had V12 or 18 cylinder radial aero engines in them and the power to weight ratio is a lot different on a model aero engine - the bigger 250cc & 450cc (5 and 7 cylinders) radial engines can turn bigger 3 or 4 bladed props on them but they still might not be full scale props, and these big 3 or 4 blade props cost into the hundreds of pounds and if the model noses over the props are destroyed, imagine doing that 2 or 3 times over a weekend ! most people simply cannot afford such luxuries and resort to cheaper smaller models with cheaper smaller engines and props, Hope this info helps !
