They're both Avro Ansons.  K6183 is a 1943 RAAF Mk.1 (also known as a 652A), and TX176 is a 1946 RAF C.19.  Both are airworthy, but I don't have any pix of them flying.

In Central Europe we had a partial solar eclipse some minutes ago. In Spain it was a total eclipse. Here in Germany we had ~ 85 - 87% coverage.

Here some photos, i had taken:

Great Post love all those planes. There is something wrong about seeing a B-17G Fortress wearing The Memphis Belle livery and yellow & black checker board bands around the cowling.

That B-17 is in fact Sally B, but wears the Memphis Belle nose art on the starboard side as a tribute to the time it featured in the film.
