EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts the Avro Lancaster ASR.VII G-ASXX, a historic aircraft that graced the skies above Biggin Hill Air Fair in May 1965. The Lancaster, a legendary British bomber from World War II, had an extraordinary post-war career with the French Navy as NX611 and later Aeronavale. In this image, the Lancaster is shown shortly after its arrival in the UK from Tahiti, marking the beginning of its journey back to the UK. The Lancaster ASR.VII, a maritime variant, was converted for search and rescue missions, featuring a dorsal radome and a large tail fin. Its distinctive red crosses and blue stripes, denoting its humanitarian role, add to its iconic appearance. As of 2021, this Avro Lancaster is undergoing restoration at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre in East Kirkby, Lincolnshire. The centre's dedicated team is working tirelessly to return this aviation marvel to airworthy status, allowing future generations to experience the history and legacy of this remarkable aircraft. The Lancaster's journey from the battlefields of World War II to the Biggin Hill Air Fair and now to East Kirkby is a testament to its enduring significance in aviation history. This photograph captures a moment in time when the Lancaster, having served its country in various roles, was still a symbol of hope and resilience, inspiring awe and admiration among the crowds at the air show.
