Bolingbroke arrives at East Kirkby — and another to come

Exciting new addition for Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre

Still bearing traces of its yellow wartime training scheme, the first of two Canadian-built Bristol Bolingbrokes destined for the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre is pictured in the main hangar at East Kirkby on 24 October, two days after its arrival.

A Bristol Bolingbroke, the Canadian-built variant of the Bristol Blenheim, arrived at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre at East Kirkby on 22 October. A second example was due to be delivered to the centre shortly afterwards, and another exciting new addition to the LAHC inventory is in the offing during November.

Further details will appear in the January 2023-dated issue of Aeroplane.
