: For the past 30+ years, Lancaster Fm212 has resided upon a
: concrete pedestal in Jackson Park ,Windsor Ontario Canada
: . Over the years the weather and vandals have damaged this
: once proud aircraft. Volunteers have given up their weeke
: nds to repair and repaint the airplane in situ until recen
: tly when an inspection found cracks appearing in the engin
: e mounts. The Windsor Lancaster group is fighting a tough
: battle on behalf of the Lanc, to have her removed and rest
: ored as a fitting memorial to the bomber crews that didnt
: return home. Please have a look at the website and if you
: would be interested in taking part in the letter writing c
: ampaign to show your support for this project, please let
: me know by email.
