Is this beyond a restore ?

Very nice pic and an excellent restore!!!

I'll have to put some of my old military pics up the way things are going!!!!

Anyways...I was pointed over here by the fact that someone wanted to know the aircraft...

It's an Avro Lancaster, possibly a BIII.

The shape of the wings, the props and the air intakes to the engines are giveaways. The mass and style of perspex is also a pointer.

Pics like this were (and still are!) quite popular...

Many years of making Airfix kits...both as a youngster myself, and with my young Padawan...(10yrs old...)

Absolutely superb photograph and, stunning restoration.

I wonder if it is a photograph of 12 Squadron?

Actually my first thought was Skellingthorpe...

Did think of that, but went for 12 Sqn due to Wooley's father mentioning RAF Binbrook.

Hi Thudnut,

Been following with interrest.
Memories a fickle thing but I followed your link and 626 immediately clicked.
