A Canadian World War Two Lancaster bomber has flown into Bournemouth airport along with the last remaining airworthy RAF Lancaster.
The Canadian Lancaster, currently on a UK tour, suffered engine problems ahead of the Bournemouth Air Festival in August disappointing enthusiasts keen to see the two Lancasters flying together.
The two planes arrived at the airport at around 12noon after flying over the Ferndown area to the delight of residents.
The two planes will be stationed in Bournemouth while they take part in scheduled appearances at the Duxford Air Show in Cambridgeshire and the Goodwood revival event in West Sussex.
The Canadian Avro Lancaster Mk X performed an engine “precautionary” shutdown during a flight over County Durham leading to the cancellation of its planned appearance at the Bournemouth Air Festival on 30 August.
There were more than 7,000 of the type of bomber produced between 1941 and 1946.
