For a new diorama I'm looking for WWII photos of canvas covered Lancasters (MkI and MKIII, but others are ok too) at there dispersal site in WWII. In many cases they would be covered in case of bad weather conditions.

I would be grateful for pictures of Lancs with covered wheels, engines and cockpits, etc. Also great are pictures of how the covers where been attached to the plane.

On the web I found very few so I'm asking you to help me out here. Actual photographs, tips on where to look in books, or links to specific websites or pages are very welcome. Thanks for helping me out!

Very poor quality, I'm afraid:
