Avro Lancaster Bomber

My Great uncle i think Was shot down Over France R.I.P he was a Piolot officer in the R.A.F and it wasent long untill the end of the war but he was shot down :( 1939-1945

My Uncle Flight Seargeant PL Kirkpatrick was a Lancaster tail gunner with the Royal Australian Air Force during WW2. His plane was hit by Flak over Helsinborg Sweden and crashed on their final mission Feb 1945. Only the pilot survived as he was blasted from the cockpit following flak making a direct hit on the "Cookie" and causing a major explosion onboard...Very brave men all of them.Lest we forget...

Thank the Lord for that aircraft, and the men who flew and died in them. I am 46, and aware that without them I would not be writing this. My grandad served in the Irish Guards. Whilst trying to prepare the Rememberance Day service he told me that in his "Tommy Cooker" (Tank) he was a lot safer than they were. My thanks go to the men of all nations who fought for freedom.

Nice video and good song. The music was familiar at first and I know why. Because the 'Pearl Harbour December 7th' soundtrack and 'DJ Tiesto - Adagio for strings' are both based on it. Never knew this was the original

This was the Canadian made Lancaster MK X in Hamilton ontairio. Only 1 of 2 in the world still flying The other is in England and owned by the RAF

my grand uncle ,navigator, was killed on raid of bois de cassan on august 6 1944 , dfc awarded , aged 22 , murdo macdonald from Bernera , one of 3 lancasters lost on that raid against v bomb sites , 107 lancasters took off out of a combined number of 222 aircraft , from 4,5 and 8 group . He was in 83 squadron , pathfinder force , true heros

It is Barbers 'Agnus Dei' and the instramental was used in platoon.
