    will fly the North West staging route

    Here is a link at the Canadian end. As might be expected, the Lancaster will fly the North West staging route of WWII across the Atlantic - from Goose Bay in Newfoundland to Greenland, then Iceland to Scotland and finally at journeys ends to RAF Coningsby on August 8, 2014.

    This link also has some pretty good pictures of the bomber from rebuild to current.

    I was at Hamilton when they flew the Lancaster in the late '80's. This was just after it was rebuilt. I have some pretty cool VHS footage of it in formation with a Spitfire and a Hurricane.

    Returned again a few months later when they put on a full airshow.

    I love old iron!

    John has a couple of jets in his front yard

    The ‘Jett-Bleu’ estate, named after John Travolta’s children, is located in the Central Florida. The 6,400 square foot mansion designed to resemble an airport terminal sits at the end of a private 1.4 mile runway.

    Aviation fanatic John Travolta can literally pull his private Boeing 707 or Gulfstream Jet to his front door as seen in the images below. According to Forbes Magazine, Travolta is the only private citizen in the United States who owns a former Boeing 707. The aircraft was repainted in vintage Qantas livery.

    In addition to the two plane hangers the compound also boasts a swimming pool, gym, 16 car garage, horse ranch and a mini golf course. The home cost Travolta $2.5 Million to build and was completed in 2004.
