Hello all,
well, this is an extremely long shot, but I was wondering if anyone out there knows of, or has perhaps in family albums, any colour photos from SBAC Farnborough 1949 that show Canberra VN799? I’ve seen b/w Movietone footage showing her, and seen a few good b/w pics, but wondered if any attendees with colour cameras may have taken some snaps of her? Better still, if any old 8mm colour footage exists (maybe an American source?)
Here’s hoping. Best to all,
Steve

That is a cracker of a photo, Paddy, many thanks. I’ve only ever seen a very small photo of that, so to her see full size is great – cheers for that.
If anyone’s got anymore, that’s the kind of thing I’m after.

Hi Steve
I don’t know if this was taken at Farnborough but it is VN 799 in flight in 1949
