Rare view of the Flight Deck of 'dual control' Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum (CWHM) Avro Lancaster MkX C-GVRA Cn MDF-281 (Marked as KB726 Code VR-A), taken with flash in the CWHM hangar on 27Jul2014. The ‘splashed’ bugs on the windscreens indicate that this Lanc is a Flyer! The location is Hamilton Ontario (CYHM), guarded by a pole mounted F-104 Starfighter at the entrance. The Lancaster was being prepared for a trans-Atlantic flight (scheduled for Departure on 04Aug2014) to join RAF BBMF Lancaster PA474 for a series of Formation flights in UK). Special Thanks to CWHM Guide Ken Murphy, for my Tour of the Museum – achieved seven years after you invited me to visit.
