    Matt, having checked the net i can tell you that the first Canadian manufactured Lancaster rolled off their production lines on 1 August 1943 (see wikipedia - Victory Aircraft) so the Dams raid (May 1943) Lancs were definately built in England! BIII Lancasters did have Packard Merlin engines tho'.

    Looking good, Matt. Looking forward to seeing the finished model!

    Gregor, I think you're right. The Canadian version Of the BIII was the B Mk X. Found an interesting site:
