Lancaster

8 Squadron, Egyptian Air Force (Cairo) 1956

 

This is a set of decals and a repaint of the upper surfaces of the original Lancaster skin by Gramps. All credit for the rest of the skin goes to him

 

The EAF had 9 Lancasters at the beginning of the Suez Crisis numbered from 1801 to 1809. Relegated to reserve units with the arrival of the IL-28s, the Lancasters of the EAF were dispersed around a number of airfields during the conflict. Five were caught on the ground and destroyed by FAA Seahawks.

 

Cheers
