Terrible, I worked on Canberras for 5 year in the 80's and they were a fantastic jet.

Suffering from corrosion problems then so it must be in a right state now.

Still nothing can replace it for Photo reccy, a really stable platform

The US Air Force have one on outdoor display at a museum in the north end of Pensicola Florida.

It is all black and sits close to the ground, I knew it wasn't American, fortunately it had a plaque identifying it.

I believe it was used for night ops. nice looking aircraft.

Just watched it on line. Been out the country for a few days.

Man when I leave the RAF, I'll be able to drop all my standards and still get a job.

ATB Dan.





The less I worked, the more i liked it.

I believe the Americans still fly their "Canberra" - RB57. I think it is in the guise of a NASA jet, used as part of the BACN programme!
