    We would send young apprentices to the steam room to ask the lead hand for a short weight (wait) The lead hand would send him back to tell us he only had long weights (waits) We sent him back for a long weight. The lead hand would tell him he had to look for the weight a little while latter he would ask the lad if he waited long enough.

    So right with the engine sounds the Lancaster going over head make. Living in Hamilton Ont. we are lucky enough to have an Air museum with a Lancaster still flying today. People can book to go up in the Lancaster. I would venture to say most of us living in and around Hamilton have viewed the flights. The sound is amazing. When I see the Lancaster and hear the engines I try and imagine 100's of them going over head.
