RAF trainee pilots use Super Tucanos, not super-rare WWII Lancasters

"We used to come down, doing about 180mph. We take off over the bridge and change down to 4th gear in the air. Go through the righthander with the car drifting, and let it swing out through the lefthander and then slide out to the wall, where we simply stopped it with a flick of the wrists"

Yea i go to the manchester airport viewing port every now and then, one time we went randomly and saw both the concorde and a brand new british airways 747 take off!!
Im a big fan of world war 2 aircraft...if you havent yet, youve gotta visit the woodford air museum down south. It has everything from a spitfire to a concorde to a b-52 to the blackbird.. absolutely amazing place. It was the first place that the spitfires were hosted before the war.

yep, but then the good pilots get the chance to be trained to fly the BBMF planes.RAF trainee pilots use Super Tucanos, not super-rare WWII Lancasters
So it might have been training

There is a Concorde in the Imperial War Museum in Duxford, near Cambridge, never flown in one, but sitting in a plane waiting for one to take off from Heathrow was already quite an experience as even inside that plane the sound was deafening.
In the German musuem of Sinsheim, near Heidelberg, they now have both a Concorde and a Tupolev 144 on display, the only two supersonic jetliners ever built.
Yesterday I passed through Moscow Domodedovo airport and in front of the main building they have parked a Tupolev 114, the fastest turboprop jet ever, a fanstastic machine. Could not make a picture, I was in transit and only saw it when taking off.
