Default Lancasters Reunited

I received the following link from a contact intheUK.

This is just the trailer - will be fantastic when the full documentary is released later in the year.

Even the trailer gives me goose bumps, can't wait for the full production.

Some beautiful air to air shots in the trailer.

Fantastic stuff. I saw PA474 - the RAF machine - flying a few years ago and that was powerful as it was... I followed the tour with much jealousy. At one point they overflew East Kirkby, a wartime airfield currently the base for NX611 'Just Jane' which is a Lancaster in taxiable condition (I managed to go for a taxi ride in it once too); so there were not one, not two but THREE Lancasters operating in the same place at the same time for the first time in, on I don't know, five decades??

Incidentally, good thing they didn't try it this year. PA474 suffered an in-flight engine fire a couple of weeks ago (some rather poignant photos floating around of the Lancaster trailing smoke from one engine...) and is grounded for some time.
