EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Avro Lancaster IV and Avro Lincoln prototype PW925 as they sit side by side on the tarmac in 1944. The Lancaster IV, a heavy bomber aircraft produced by the Avro Aircraft Company during World War II, was a key component of the Royal Air Force's strategic bombing campaign against Germany. With its distinctive rounded nose and bomb bay doors, the Lancaster IV was renowned for its versatility and durability, carrying various payloads including bombs, mines, and even gliders. In contrast, the Avro Lincoln prototype PW925, also known as the Avro Type 698, was an experimental version of the Lancaster IV, developed to test the use of a new Rolls-Royce Vulture engine. The Vulture engine was a two-stage axial-flow turbojet, which offered increased power and improved performance compared to the standard Merlin engines used in the Lancaster IV. The Lincoln prototype PW925 made its first flight on May 20, 1944, and although it demonstrated impressive capabilities, it was ultimately decided that the Lancaster IV would continue in production due to its proven success and the urgency of the war effort. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into aviation history, with the Lancaster IV and Lincoln prototype PW925 standing together as symbols of innovation and determination during a pivotal moment in time. The Lancaster IV went on to serve with distinction in the post-war period, while the Lincoln prototype paved the way for future jet-powered aircraft. This image is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of those who worked tirelessly to advance aviation technology during the Second World War.
