Classic British Flight Sim

Now that the sad day has passed and 39Sq Canberras are no more, I'd like to know where the old lady is still flying in military guise. May be India or Perù ? It seems incredible that the Canberras has gone forever..She has been my favorite plane since early childhood and now I cannot accept that the only similar plane to fly are those odd RB57F...

I was one of the lucky ones to see them bow out at Kemble - end of an era!

As for other military examples, well you mensioned Peru, and this was taken last year......

I also found out that some 'Raspberry Ripples' are still working on trials flights in the states, would you believe! I'll try and find the web site again, and post a link.

At least Air Atlantique still fly 'em for displays! :dance:

.........And India!...(But it crashed - wonder if they've got anymore...)

And speaking of which, WK163's next outing will be Elvington over the weekend of the 19th and 20th August.

I was lucky to have worked on the b2/t19/e15 of tattytons ie 100sqn target towing with b2,at RAF marham,between 1977/1979.
In any war games,we allways played the bad guys,and we won.
She was a good aircraft to work on,and very reliable,did a few detatchments to malta and one to cyprus,and i was in trondeim for a two week nato exercise,food was bad,but beer and norwegians where great.

I think nasa here in the states uses a hight altitude spy verion that the skunk works developed in the 50's for atmospheric research, I am not sure if the military here still uses it, it has the advantage of having more payload than the U2
