The 19 mark B(I)6 Canberras were built in 1955 as an interim measure pending the B(I)8, for ground-attack, interdictor and bomber roles. They served only 213 Sqn in RAFG, but this one (and WT308) went to the RAE instead. Used for weapons trials, the later 'Raspberry Ripple' scheme was modified with white undersides to improve performance of the wingtip mounted cameras. After a period as a ground apprentice trainer, she was scrapped in Jan 1998 but the nose section was saved for the FAST museum at Farnborough.

This 1942 C-47 was in Italy with the USAAF during the last part of WWII and remained there afterwards with Linee Airee Italiane as I-LINA. After the merger with Alitalia in 1957, went to the Air Force in 1960 and flew electronic missions with 14° Stormo Radiomisure. Dumped at Practica di Mare in 1998 and still derelict there. Sad for what was arguably the star of that Fairford show, but at least there is a similar example beautifully preserved in the IAF museum at Vigna di Valle

Built as a B.2 in 1953 and flown by three Bomber Command squadrons till 1960, this Canberra was converted to a U.14 radio-controlled pilotless target by Shorts at Belfast. Then operated by RN 728 Sqn from Hal Far, Malta on Seacat and Seaslug missile trials. After removal of radio gear, joined the A&AEE as a target tug in 1964 and was later used for ejector seat trials till 1988, including a period with Martin-Baker at Chalgrove. Dismantled by 1994 but the cockpit section was saved
