Photographer not known. This aircraft is now the only surviving Lincoln in the UK, at the RAF Museum, Cosford.

Ex RE351 One of about four surviving Lincoln bombers can be found in the museum in Moron near Buenos Aires. Another Argentinian example can be found at Villa Reynolds air base.

Delivered to the RAF as RF342. To Napier as G-APRJ in 1958 and used for icing research as G-29-1. Used as a ground trainer at Cranfield from 1962. Last flight to Southend for preservation in 1967. Sold in 1983 after the museum closed. Dismantled and moved around different locations in the UK. Shipped to Australia in 2007 and stored at Moorabbin, Victoria.

G-APRJ on display at the Historic Aircraft Museum repainted from RF342 and wearing its old Class B test registration of G-29-1. When the museum closed and its contents were auctioned in May 1983 it sold for £8,500. The majority of the aeroplane ended up with the Australian National Aviation Museum while the nose (a Lancaster nose from the pilot's windscreen forward, ex-TW911) went to Flying Heritage, Seattle.

Operated by the RAF Flying College at Manby

Stored at Cosford from late summer 1968, and allocated the instructional serial 8376M on 5 September 1973. Later displayed in the RAF Museum at Cosford.

G-APRJ on display at the Grand Opening Day of the Historic Aircraft Museum repainted from RF342 and wearing its old Class B test registration of G-29-1. When the museum closed and its contents were auctioned in May 1983 it sold for £8,500. The majority of the aeroplane ended up with the Australian National Aviation Museum while the nose (a Lancaster nose from the pilot's windscreen forward, ex-TW911) went to Flying Heritage, Seattle.

Operated by various test and experimental units, during which it flew with a Napier Naiad turboprop engine in the nose and later as G-37-1 with a Rolls Royce Tyne engine in the nose. In the latter configuration it was displayed at the 1956 Farnborough Air Show at which it made a flypast with all four Merlins shut down and feathered and powered by just the Tyne engine. It was later fitted with a radome test nose. It made its last operational flight 21 April 1961 and was SOC 3 May 1961. It was delivered to the Fire Fighting School at Stansted 27 June 1961 and was burnt there sometime in 1966/67.

Arrived from Cranfield on 9th May 1967 for the BHAM. Following the demise of that museum, the aeroplane was moved to a new site on the western side of the airport as a founder of the Historic Aircraft Museum (Southend). The museum can be seen under construction in the background and opened in May 1972. Clearly seen is the Lancaster nose (from the pilot's windscreen forward) ex-TW911, fitted in the late 40s/early 50s.

Believed to be operating in support of Canberras participating in the London-Christchurch air race. Three RAF and two RAAF Canberras were in the race. Photo from: National Library of Australia

Scrapped at RAF Shawbury some time after 1963.

Used for aerofoil icing research from 1959 until retirement in 1962. Later it was displayed in the Historic Air Museum at Southend (EGMC).

After use as an engine test bed (wearing a class "B" Registration, G-37-1), with a Napier Naiad,then a R.R.Tyne fitted in the )nose,this aircraft was finally fitted with a radome test nose. S.O.C. May 5th 1961. It is shown here in the Fire Fighting School Area.

Ex G-APRJ and RF342 used for icing research by Napier's. Latterly to the BHAM at Southend.

Formerly a research testbed with Cranfield University and Napier as G-36-3, G-29-1 and G-APRJ. Arrived from Cranfield on 9th May 1967. Of note is the Lancaster nose (from the pilot's windscreen forward) ex-TW911, fitted in the late 40s/early 50s and the graphics representing the different wing/tail sections that had been mounted on the upper fuselage: Buccaneer, Caravelle (tail & wing), Comet wing, Beverley wing, Britannia wing, Avro 748 wing and Argosy tail.
