We are saddened by the news of Jack Finan's passing at the incredible age of 105. He served as a Lancaster pilot with the RCAF in WW2. Our thoughts are with the Finan family - this year's Remembrance Day will not be the same without Jack in the front row. Lest we forget

She’s out of hibernation! It’s time for the first engine run up after an extra long winter maintenance of North America’s only flying Lancaster.

🔊 Crank up the volume and take in the sound of the Lancaster’s first engine start of 2025. It’s almost time to fly. The first passenger flights are scheduled for Canada Day 🇨🇦!

She's alive! The engines fired up quickly on the first Lancaster VR-A engine run-up of the year. A few tweaks are required, and we'll be ready for flying very soon.

You're going to want to turn the volume up for this one! The Lancaster has successfully completed its first engine run of 2024. A few tweaks are required, and then we will be ready to fly!

10 YEARS AGO TODAY - our Lancaster flew with the Vulcan and the @RAFBBMF - Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster during the 2014 UK Tour. Never to be repeated!

The cockpit of our Supermarine Spitfire LF Mk. XVIe is a time capsule. It has remained essentially untouched since it came off the production line in 1945.
