  1. I came here just to see if anyone else has seen it! I’ve been trying to find it on flight radar. It flew over NW8 maybe 5 minutes ago. Was flying very low and straight line past my windows so I got a pretty good look 🤩

    Still can’t figure out what model it is. But it’s a black aircraft with a bullseye on the side. It looked like a vintage airforce bullseye but now I regret gawking rather than looking at the detail more to find it. Reddit will I’m sure.

  2. Today – Duxford Battle of Britain Airshow – Lancaster B-plane.

  3. S’just a ghost plane, nothing to worry about.

  4. A very special plane, one of two flying Lancasters in the world. Hope you enjoyed hearing those 4 Merlins roar, it’s a rare sound.

  5. It looks like an Avro Lancaster and thankfully not a Junkers 88.

  6. My grandfather was a navigator in one of those during the second world war

  7. Looks like a Lancaster. Best sounding engine in the air force.
