I don’t think that Newark would claim to tell “the story of the Canberra”, but they do tell the individual stories of their exhibits i.e. latterly WV787 was a trails aircraft at Boscombe Down and they now have gathered together a lot of details about that phase of its service life and they have examples of the spray bars etc.

Another advantage they have is that one of their Vice-Presidents and early members is a guy called Peter Green, who is a noted Canberra historian; he has a tremendous photo archive and has written books about the type.

Lots of Canberras in different museums but I believe that the largest concentration is at the museum where I’m a member – Newark Air Museum.
