According to the Goodwood revival website Mike Davis will be displaying Canberra XH134 – “the only remaining airworthy example in the world”. Am I correct in thinking that this aircraft has not yet flown? If so they’re running out of time!
Would be great to see it though. Does anyone know whether this aircraft is likely to be making an appearance – in the air?

Different beasts.
134 is a pressurised PR9 with access/egress to the pilot compartment only via the canopy.
The intruder version retained the crew door access and the canopy did not open for access, only egress via Martin and Baker.

i think the claim as “the worlds only airworthy Canberra” is a bit odd..the temora one is still airworthy as far as i know.
is XH134 an intruder(fighter styled canopy)?
