I live in Burlington Ontario near Hamilton where they keep one of 2 airworthy Lanks..Every now and then I can hear the wonderful sound of 4 Merlin engines..look up and see the Lank flying by.

Once when I was on my balcony early in spring...it flew by low...damn did that look nice...!!!!!!!!!!

This one is at the Toronto Aerospace museum where it is being restored..

It was on a pedestal down by the lake in Toronto, I helped clean the engines of this one when it was moved to the museum.

During WW2 , there was a contest and the prize was a free flight in this bird..my aunt won and got the ride, my mother told me about how exited she was..!

Great find Ascout.
From there I also found an aerial clip (no sound though).
