After what has undoubtedly been a nerve wracking and very busy weekend, @LongmateAdy and the team @Bombergateway have placed their beautiful tribute to Bomber Command next to the A46 at Norton Disney. Huge respect to them for achieving what they aimed to. Be proud Lincolnshire!
For those not on Instagram, this is the video attached to the post below. An absolutely amazing project close to completion through the dedication of some hugely committed people with the help of charitable donations and business support. The Angel of the East?
An incredible project very nearly coming to fruition. Keep your eyes out along the A46 near the old RAF Swinderby. A labour of love from the chaps who designed, built and are about to put this up. Support them. Lest We Forget. instagram.com/reel/DOOTDkhiG…

An absolute honour, as ever. Flying over my very favourite place in London with incredible views of the capital as a lovely bonus.
On Sunday, our Lancaster flew over London and the Bomber Command Memorial during the annual Bomber Command Memorial Service, as veterans and current serving personnel gathered to remember those who lost their lives during the Second World War.

We are now running low on this amazing patch!
On the 14th June 2025, Geoffrey along with 300 special patches took flight in the amazing Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (Official) (BBMF) Lancaster Bomber for His Majesty The King’s Birthday Flypast over London.
We are thrilled to announce that all profits from the sales of this incredible event patch will jointly go to ‘Great Ormond Street Hospital’ and the ‘Mark Long Trust’ that is in the process of being set up by Mark’s family and friends.
The Trust will be supporting scholarships through Flying Scholarships for Disabled People (FSDP), and provide opportunity within aviation for disadvantaged people.
We cannot express how grateful for each and everyone of you for your support, with this we have an opportunity to help so many people!
Thank you!
Patches are available now on our website

20 years ago, ten of my colleagues from RAF Lyneham lost their lives aboard C130K XV179, when she was lost in Iraq. The video is a tribute to Them at RIAT the summer afterward.
Watch the video, listen to the words, remember Them. Please.
Lest We Forget.

Fabulous footage of us displaying @SanicoleAirshow last weekend.
We may have returned home to Lincolnshire, but we are still looking back fondly at our weekend in Belgium for @SanicoleAirshow 🇧🇪
Thank you to Tim Janssens from Island Park Media for this fantastic footage of our Lancaster as it displayed overseas! ✈️

PDA was awarded to the @RAFBBMF Lancaster Display today. Huge thanks to our tireless, devoted and expert engineers and the rest of our fantastic team for the hard work to allow this to happen. That noise. ❤️

Many congratulations to @SarahLouMiller on the release of her second book, The Lancaster Story. I think that many of my followers would be very interested in reading it!
It’s TODAAAAAY! My second book, ‘The Lancaster Story’, is officially released! Thank you to everyone who has sent pictures of it popping up in bookshops! And huge thanks to everyone who made it happen - especially to @Seb_Lanc99 for the beautiful foreword!
As the 2024 season approaches, I thought it may interest some to get an insight into how we operate our wonderful aircraft.
🎙In our latest podcast episode, we're joined by @BBMF_Sugden and @Seb_Lanc99 from the RAF's Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (@RAFBBMF) to talk about what representing the RAF's historical unit involves and how they fly and display their aircraft!

Paid a little visit to @WHGA yesterday with the day job aircraft. Beautiful blue skies!
A very nice video of a bit of Unprepared Runway operations training that I did last week. Always great fun landing a large transport aircraft on a beach!

To close our weekend at @IWMDuxford for the Battle of Britain Airshow, we’re delighted to share this Go Pro footage taken from the B-17 Flying Fortress, Sally B, who flew in formation ahead of our Lancaster, PA474.

The very old, the old and the relatively new (but shortly to be demolished) in one picture. Great capture @deltic17

Brilliant video from @Jamie_Pilot from the @RAFConingsby Families’ Day on Friday.
One of our Bomber Pilots, Flt Lt Jamie Jackson captured some great footage during RAF Coningsby Families Day on Friday, and put together this great montage video! 🎥

If anyone is interested in how the dear old C-130 and her crews were seen by our “customers”, this is really worth a read. As crew, I experienced first hand the other side of the story, and can vouch for its authenticity!
