Hopefully nothing to serious. Certainly could have been much worse -

Latest on the Lanc following the engine fire courtesy of the BBMF Faceach page -

Lancaster update
Good evening here is a a brief post about the progress on the repairs after the problem with the number four engine. As you can appreciate I cannot give you all the details but it is not simply an engine change. There is fire damage to the nacelle panels, engine bearer and associated systems. All this will take time to assess, repair or replace. We hope to have her flying again this year but at this moment we can not say when. Paul B
