- This Avro Lancaster Mk. X is one of only two working Lancaster bombers in the world.
In this video, Avro Lancaster VR-A is taking off and returning to land at Hamilton International Airport - YHM - in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
The audio is recorded inside the Lancaster bomber during the flight.
The Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum is committed to the restoration and preservation of its collection of over 40 aircraft, including the Avro Lancaster.

My dad died some years ago in hamilton. He had been a flight engineer on the lancasters postwar. He had a model by his bed. as I was leaving this hospice for what turned out to be the last time this lanc was flying above. thank you so much for keeping it in the air
Had the opportunity to stand under the enourmous bomb bay doors of this historic aircraft in 2016. My Dad's three older bothers served in Britain in WW2 with the RAF. We are from Jamaica, West Indies. God Bless Canada. One of my Dad's brothers died in action in Aug 1944 with RAF 107 Squadron and lies today in France beside his Canadian pilot in Connantre, Marne district.
I was at CWH on September 11, 1988 for the Lancaster's first flight. It was magnificent - we still have the poster they were selling. It's hard to believe anything so big can be so graceful in the air. She is a fitting memorial to the young men such as Andrew Mynarski who took off in the cause of freedom and never returned.
Was right on the end of the runway with my Dad when this plane landed in Goderich to be put on a pylon.Was quite impressive being that close to it. And LOUD! We then had a complete tour of the plane and glad he was with me as he worked on them in WW2
I live near the airport, and when this is in the air you will hear it long before you can see it, nothing sounds like it. Great video!!
I had the privilege to see this magnificent piece of history flying, congrats to CWHM for keeping it airworthy.
Love seeing VERA fly over T'ronna, which is a privilege every time. Great cinematography on this one. Her camo is looking pretty weather beaten, but still an amazing bird! Forever may she fly!
Thank you for not including music over that! It's rare to find video of these planes with no one talking, and no music.
What a graceful ol' bird she is ! Could watch her for hours ! Imagine the sound of a whole squadron going overhead ! Amazing ! Welldone guys ! 👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘🤘
❤ YOU, ' V R A ', and your Home, our Stunning Museum, as well ❣❣ Roland Singh, Canada 🇨🇦
I saw V RA at the Dayton Airshow in the late 90s. Such a beautiful aircraft and a masterpiece of technology.
amazing drone shots of this beautiful old bomber.
Actually shot on a camera mounted to a helicopter.
I could see the heat coming off the engines!
What an amazing beautifully crafted aircraft. I always see it above and around the golden horseshoe every Sunday.
amazing
Such a beautiful and marvelous piece of engineering it's incredible the amount of work that went into building these machines. And to think they had hundreds of them flying at one point. It's amazing and horrifying at the same time to think the destruction and suffering these machines were designed to deliver to the unfortunate beings that happed to be below when they opened the doors.
Watching the Dam Busters here in London gb has taken me back to seeing two Lancaster flying together thanks CWH for looking after your Lancaster and for the overwhelming enjoyment of the occasion
My great uncle was the pilot of that lancaster back in ww2.
Recorded horizontally:)
I knew 3 men that flew them during the war and all 3 survived.
How in the world did you get a drone to fly that fast?!
Shot on a camera mounted to a helicopter.
Sorry to be a bore, but that to me looks like AI footage, or deepfake, or whatever it is called. I know on take-off the humans look real in the cockpit, but I am not totally sure that this video is real. If you can prove otherwise, please let me know. Perhaps you were there.
That's actually funny. We wouldn't know how to do that but we do own and fly one of only two Lancasters that is still flying in the world. The footage was shot with a camera mounted to a helicopter that flew near us. It was shot local to us so in the Hamilton area. We had real pilots flying the Lancaster. We did add the sound (recorded separately) as the original footage had no sound. We have a picture of the helicopter flying beside the Lancaster and could dig it up if really necessary.
@@canadianwarplaneheritagemuseum thanks for putting my mind at ease. I want content to be genuine and there is so much that is fake in today's horrible world. It's OK as far as I'm concerned to be cynical and question everything.
Great to see the big bird in flight. Congrats on getting her up.
There are more than 2 working Lancasters in the world but only 2 that are airworthy.
My dad was a RCAF. aero engine mechanic on loan to the RAF, in Bristol , England, discharged in 46. When in the service at 17 , because that’s where the action was.
I flew in this aircraft just over 2 weeks ago and what an experience it was too. Amazing!!!!!!
Saw this plane today in Saskatoon!
