Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, Mount Hope, ON Lancaster KB726 VR-A On an unexpectedly sunny day, I was able to return to the wonderful Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum nearly seven years after my first visit. The Lancaster, which has toured the UK with our own PA474, was flying on pilot training sorties and, after each departure, making modestly exuberant flypasts of the museum area. One could not help but be moved. To see either of the two surviving, airworthy Lancasters flying is a great privilege. This shot shows clearly the Victoria Cross tribute to P/O Andrew Mynarski who died as the result of injuries sustained in the crash of the original KB726 but saved the life of his tail gunner. 200_3_P1100881
