Lancaster Mickey copy
Battle of Britain Memorial Flight's Lancaster P A 474, painted as "Mickey the Moocher", was a member of 61 Squadron R A F. Based at Skellingthorpe Lincolnshire and is believed to be one of the very few W W 2 bomber to complete over 100 operations. Its final tally was 118 operations, but the ground crews painted a bombing symbol on the nose every time the aircraft crossed the enemy coast resulting in 128 operations.
