Thanks, Bruce. By coincidence, I toyed with the idea of posting the first of your three pics.

The aircraft are from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight of the RAF. The Lancaster is flanked by a Spitfire and Hurricane.
This year the Lancaster has been joined in some of its displays by the only other airworthy example which flew over from Canada.
There is nothing quite like the sound of Rolls-Royce Merlin engines.

It looks like they've dug some WW I style trenches complete with barbed wire, too.
