A rarity for Blackpool airport but long overdue as the wireless operators and the gunners all took their training in Blackpool. Very nice footage Dave.
There's a Spitfire museum at the airport now, worth a visit - www.spitfiredisplayteam.co.uk/hangar-42/ Sadly the terminal has gone and no more international flights....

Aaah, not quite all. Montreal, Canada trained a slew of RCAF wireless airgunners before sending them overseas.
Great video.Hope to see the day we have the three lancs with jane joining vera and thumper in the air.
Greeeeaat! First vid. I've seen of our (Canadian Warplane Heritage Lanc.) Keep up the good work. Cheers, Jay (The Jay Spot- Toronto, Canada).
This may never happen again as Blackpool Airport have announced that they will be closing on 15th October if they can not find a buyer...A sad day.
