Description
RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Avro Lancaster PA474 photographed at the Newcastle Festival of Flight, Northern Ireland, 2014. One of only two left flying, I have depicted it in an evening sky, as a subtle ol painting effect comosite, as though heading out on a mission, as a tribute to the many brave crews.

Thank you Reid. Those men were indeed brave and this fine aircraft is a memorial to them. In WW2, RAF Bomber Command suffered a 55% loss rate! This was the highest of any allied fighting unit in the war.
