June 9 is the day the British bomber Lincoln made its first flight.
It was an aircraft model developed by Avro in the 1940s, one of the improved versions of the Lancaster, though it was later given the name Lincoln.
Numerous improvements were made, including an extension of the main wings, enlargement of the fuselage, and installation of a new type of engine, with the maximum payload expanded to 11 tons, but it did not make it in time for the war.

Avro Lincoln was last RAF piston engine heavy bomber. As the V bombers we’re not yet ready, United States loaned RAF 88 B-29s, designated Washington B.1, to fill the gap.
