Parked in a line of Canberras at the event at the Photocall celebrating the type's 40th anniversary since its first flight.

The cockpit section of this FRADU Canberra still survives in the corner of the museum.

Still carrying the shark's mouth of 16 Sqd RAF Germany where XM264 served until 1972.

The last Australian built Canberra.

Used for ground instruction at Cosford from 1983 and scrapped in 1991. Nose section preserved and sold to a private owner in Welshpool, Powys.

One of 35 aircraft which made up the excellent RAF Colerne Aircraft Museum. The aircraft were dispersed when the station closed in 1976. Arrived at Colerne in 1963. Allocated maintenance serial 7796M. Departed to become the gate guard at the RAF Princess Alexandra Hospital at Wroughton. The nose section survives with a private owner.

Over 28 years of service with the RAF, this 1952-vintage Canberra served with a long list of units, as follows, with credit to Damien Hurst's excellent Thunder & Lightnings site: Stn Flt RAF Waddington, Stn Flt RAF Upwood, 231 OCU, Stn Flt Upwood, 231 OCU, 56 Sqdn Cyprus, Stn Flt RAF Wyton, 100 Sqd, 231 OCU, 360 Sqdn and finally with 231 OCU again. Sold back to BAC in 1981 and stored at Samlesbury till 1988, when acquired by the Solway museum. It is to the credit of the hard-working staff there that I found almost all of the outdoor aircraft in unusually fine condition after recent repaints.

Acquired by the museum from BAe in 1988, WJ639 was built by Handley Page at Radlett as a B.2, flying with 57 Sqdn Coningsby until conversion to TT.18. Used by BAC, the A&AEE and Flight Refuelling for a series of trails before joining 7 Sqdn at St Mawgan, where it finished its service on the squadron's closure at the end of 1981 and was sold back to BAe. Initially displayed in its final camouflage colours with the target towing yellow/black undersides.
