Avro 694 Lincoln RF355
The Avro Lincoln was a development of
the Lancaster, designed by famed aviation architect
Roy Chadwick. It had a greater wingspan
and carried a larger payload than the Lancaster.
It arrived too late to see action in WW II,
although post war RAF squadrons were equipped
with some 600 of them. Victory Aircraft in Canada were to
have manufactured them but, in
the event, only built one. The
Lincoln was phased out in the late 1950s, and didn't have the
range to attack targets in the then current
threat, namely targets inside the Iron Curtain. (For
that job the RAF had to rely on
imported B-29s, named the Washington).. I believe RF355
went to the
Royal Canadian Air Force at some point in its career.
