The aircraft nightstopped on its way to an airshow in Northern Ireland. It did a circuit and flyby after takeoff, much to the delight of all the assembled photogs and families with children. This would have been a common sight and sound 60 years ago as Prestwick was the eastern end of the delivery route for Canadian built Lancasters.
