    The day this icon leaves the ground shoud be a bank holiday. The care and dedication of the team is awesome a lesson in life for many of todays youngsters. Always think its a shame that the vulcan project had to stop after all the blood sweat and tears expended on it. Thanks guys😊

    I was talking to the guys at Woodford many years ago when they'd just finished working on the BBMF Lanc. They found the inner surfaces of the wing skins had never been painted because the average operational life of a Lancaster was around 3 months and corrosion was not considered an issue.

    Hey Nev, maybe getting ahead a bit, but are they going to fit Jane with dual controls similar to Thumper and Vera? Also, have they identified who might be pilot flying for the first flights?

    • @nevillewheeldon1693

    Neville !!! great commentary, at the rate you are going there will soon be 9K viewers that can take over a ground crew position (just in case someone forgets to come to work, wink wink). It might be a treat to show the before start checklist that the crew is using. You are doing GREAT work Neville!!

    NO NO NO the whole country holiday...my father did not celebrate many things, but as a WWII vet, who put on the uniform, i think he
    would have loved to see this bird fly, how I got to be a aviator, his stories of watching the planes above, or being strafed by them.

    Neville, considering the mission marks painted below the cockpit, can you tell me why some bombs are painted in red? And what the hell those ice cream cones represent? 🙈. Thank you, congrats to the whole team for the fantastic job done so far.

    • @nicholasbell9017
      @nicholasbell9017 Год назад +2

      The Ice cream cones signified ops over Italy. Not sure about the red bomb symbols...
      Hey, the history continues to inspire and intrigue us with these little human embellishments, painted on with pride, by ground crew. Pride, and some relief from the Lanc's safe return to their care. Many never returned. I think of those ground crew guys, and the WAAFs, waiting at crack of dawn for that first distant beat of engines. It puts shivers up my spine.

    Have the engine-driven generators now been fitted and wired? I thought that freshly-charged batteries were still fitted prior to engine runs and taxiing?

  • @happyhome41
    @happyhome41 Год назад

    Is the flight engineer standing ? I'm guessing that is an expedient for taxi operations. Surely was not normal operations for flight ?

    • @throttlegalsmagazineaustra7361
      @throttlegalsmagazineaustra7361 Год назад +2

      The flight engineer had a small folding seat, but it was rarely used as the fuel cocks, fuel pressure instruments and transfer pumps etc were on the starboard fuselage behind him. So the engineer mostly flew standing beside the pilot.
