Cool man! I saw a similar sight, but it was at work on Friday. I work downtown Toronto on the top floor of a loft building so I have a nice view of the north. I hear helicopters landing often at Mount Sianai, but when I heard this thunderous approach I knew it was something serious.
I plaster myself to the window and see a Lancaster flanked by a P-51 (with drop tanks) a Hurricane and a B-25 with D-Day stripes on it. The Lanc was center, the fighters to either side nice and close. The B-25 was trailing a bit somewhat out of formation. Wish I had of grabbed my iphone in time, but I didn't want to miss it with my real eyes.
No idea what they were doing here, there's a Lancaster that flies out of Hamilton at the Canadian aviation museum, but doesn't explain the presence of the other planes.
Thanks for posting mate,
