Summary
editDescriptionWaving off tiger force.jpg |
English: At RAF Middleton St. George, RCAF Air Vice-Marshal Clifford Mackay “Black Mike” McEwen, commander of 6 Group (foreground), Air Vice-Marshal Arthur “Bomber” Harris (middle) and RCAF Air Marshal G.O. Johnson, AOC RCAF Overseas (background) wave goodbye to the first of 141 Canadian Lancasters departing for Canada. A/V/M McEwen was a First World War fighter pilot with 22 aerial victories. One of the Lancs destined to join Tiger Force was Lancaster KB999, the 300th Canadian-built Lancaster. When it came off the assembly line in Malton, Ontario, Victory Aircraft Corporation production staff dedicated this aircraft to McEwen and had his pennant painted on the nose with the words “Malton Mike”. After the end of the war, KB999 was assigned to the RCAF’s 405 Vancouver Squadron and flew A/V/M McEwan to Canada on June 17, 1945. PHOTO: Bomber Command Museum of Canada Collection |
