This 1953 reconaissance Canberra was placed on display at the Manston fire school in 6.69 (allocated 8049M after 231 OCU service), along with a Javelin and Spitfire, but was scrapped in 3.90. Based on the Canberra B.2, the PR.3 had a 14" section inserted in the forward fuselage to house seven cameras, and replaced the Mosquito PR.34 in RAF service. Nose now at the Flixton museum

Originally intended for the RAF as XH237 but diverted off MoD contract as part of a 68 aircraft deal for India in 1.57. India was the largest foreign user of the Canberra and required that their B(I)58s were fitted with extra navigation equipment, including a radio altimeter and other mods

Originally delivered to the RAF in 1954 as WK137, this eye-catching Canberra was initially intended to be used as a target tug out of Oberpfaffenhofen from 1966 with Eprobungstelle 61 but instead was used for various systems trials. It then went on to perform survey work with special camera fits at the Mil Geo Amt, Koln, becoming 99+34. Last flight 27.10.93 and now in a museum at Schwenningen. In 1991 the lower wing surfaces from an RAF TT.18 were fitted after an engine fire; the yellow and black stripes can still be seen

At the time recently placed on gate guard at RAF Wyton after withdrawal from ELINT duties with 51 Sqn there in 11.76. Previously with the RRE. Allocated 8511M but didn't last too long, being scrapped in 11.89. Two other Canberras were displayed but single gate guard policy dictated that WH773 was removed (to Gatwick) while XH170 survives at Wyton

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.

Having returned from delighting the crowds at Fairford, the Canberra took off from Kemble again. Below you can see 747 G-MKCA, modified for a promotional film which featured the new Land Rover Sport being driven up steep ramps, through cut-outs in the nose, inside the fuselage and out again
