I always love pictures from RAF Hendon. I've seen so many, I feel like I have been there myself.

No Paul that BoB Lanc is kept at Conningsby I believe! There isn't a runway in Hendon (and the car park isn't big enough!).
If I remember correctly it's R5868 a MkI Lanc....

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

No. Hendon is no longer an airfield so there's no way the BBMF Lanc could get in there except by road. This one is R5868. http://www.raf.mod.uk/rafwaddington/r5868.html

Great collection of shots pal. Came out very well in the dark interior of Hendon also. I didn't see the Tiffy in any of those pics, is it still there? Last time I was there it was next to the Thunderbolt MkII opposite the MkV Spit.
