Description
The four-engine Avro Lancaster was without a doubt the most famous of all RAF heavy bombers in World War II. From 1942 it formed the backbone of the night bombing raids deep in Germany and gained its fame through the fall of the Tirpitz and the destruction of the Möhne and Eder dams. The Lancaster could carry loads of up to 9,980 kg bombs, the Grand Slam being the heaviest single bomb. It was used in 68 squadrons of the RAF bomber command until 1945 and flew over 156,000 missions. Almost half of a total of 7,300 aircraft produced were lost. Today there are only two airworthy examples left, one in the UK and the other in Canada.
Decals for 2 RAF versions for Mk.I and Mk.III included:
- Avro Lancaster B.Mk. III, Squadron No. 100, Royal Air Force, Elsham Wolds, April 1945
- Avro Lancaster B.Mk. III, Squadron No. 9, Royal Air Force, Bardney, 1945
