Photo Comment

PA474 is seen at the airfield where many Lancasters were built, Woodford, Cheshire. It was always one of the first aircraft to arrive for the annual airshow and in those days there were still a few people working in the factory who had been involved in their construction who were pleased to give advice on problems. The livery has changed over the years and the mid upper turret was missing at that time. One was located at a Woodford Airshow as a result of a joking request during the display !
