Britain’s last Dambuster flies in BBMF Lancaster - flypast.keypublishing.com/2018/05/21/bri…

Not the prettiest of aircraft but still a lethal looking machine: the Blackburn Firebrand. This is TF.MK IV EK601 in a gorgeous air to air study taken in July 1945

One of 46 Squadron's Javelins, XA623, noses up to the camera Beverley during a press event for the type. You can read more about the Javelin and Gloster test pilot Bill Waterton in our July Jet Age issue, coming out soon...

Sortie complete. Johnny flown. Dambusters honoured. Lest We Forget.

Just finished our July issue on Britain's Jet Age... Some cracking articles in there , including features on the Comet, Scimitar and Javelin... keep an eye on the shelves!

Don't forget there's still time to buy our June edition on the desert air war, including a great feature on torpedo-dropping Wellingtons, Blenheims and Kittyhawks...

My granddad lost his camera on Monday at Stamp End in Lincoln, it’s full of photos of the opening of the Bomber Command Centre. The photos aren’t backed up and he’s devastated. It’s a long shot I know but if anyone finds it please get in touch! 📸
