Via a number of forums (for example, colour photographs of WW2 aircraft) and sites I have collated a number of colour photographs from the Second World War showing Lancasters in flight, being constructed and serviced and on various airfields.

These are most valuable photographs and appear to re-create the atmosphere and attitutes of the period. Thank you so much for publishing them. I am producing a lancaster model for the family of a tail gunner and was desperately seeking colour images to assess the real appearance of the weathered camouflage from a distance. This lancaster I'm portraying is LM269 of 630 sqdn, one of 64 lost by the unit. Thank you again and my best wishes.

Thank you so very much for this wonderful site. I am painting a 44 sqn aircraft KM-B flying under the Menai Bridge Anglesey. These images are invaluable in re creating authentic tones.
