Flying in the Lancaster cockpit

One of the great privileges of living in Toronto is having a Lancaster bomber handy for Memorial Day.

From the cockpit, it looks like four Spitfires strapped together.

"Dedication from all involved in restoring and maintaining this historic WWII bomber aircraft, I could only think of all the young airmen who worked on and flew in these Lancasters through wartime and what it could of possibly meant. ----- Part1 flight begins with engines starting then @ 00:48sec 3/4 throttle takeoff from Hamilton CWHM , cockpit view 1:53min along Great Lake Ontario to Toronto with a CN Tower flypast 07:01min . 45 degree bank turn over Toronto at 07:24 then over Lake Ontario with a upper mid gunners view 07:51min, onto Niagara Falls 10:33min."

"Part 2 continues on from Niagara Falls to the North Shores of Great Lake Erie and then with a flypast 9:56min over the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum."
