Spent a day on a Lancaster

I just got home from working on Lancaster FM212. She sits up on a plinth in Jackson Park in Windsor Ontario Canada. We were removing panels from the engine mounts and from the outer wing attachment points for an engineer to check corrosion of the pins. It looks like we are finally getting the city to see that this fine old a/c must come in out of the weather if she is to survive. She has been sitting outside for 40 years and she still smells like an a/c inside.
