Chucky, the money is there for the return to flight but I believe the fare paying passengers won't be allowed on board once she's considered airworthy. It's a shame, a Lancaster is a hell of a machine to fly in, I expect it's similar to flying in a B17, but I haven't had the chance to compare.

Thanks Harry.It looks as though she's still giving taxi rides,their web-site says she is fully booked for 2014. I did consider it,my mum would jump at the chance but it's a long way from where we are.

I don't know why, but the Hurricane is my favorite WWII aircraft and it's gorgeous in that video.

Enjoyed the video. Ya gotta play it full screen to really appreciate it. BTW, what ever happened to the Dam Busters movie?

BTW, what ever happened to the Dam Busters movie? I think it's DOA. I couldn't find anything about it on either IMDB or Comingsoon.net

I thought it was still coming? Didn't Jackson put it on hold while he did LOTR or something?
