The Lancaster aircraft at 4:15 into the video was en route to the UK. It had served for years in the French Navy in the Pacific area. I saw it at the Biggin Hill airshow in July 1965 still in its Aeronavale white paint scheme and looking a bit grubby after a 70-hour and 19-day flight back to England. It is now known as "Just Jane" NX611 and is being refurbished at Lincs Aviation Heritage Centre at East Kirkby
