    Oh heck, I have sat in, and worked on, aircraft with these instruments fitted. Am I now radioactive? Is this why my radio keeps making odd noises?

    What a load of utter rubbish these people talk. :diablo:

    Complex – since when

    [QUOTE= categorised as complex. )[/QUOTE]

    Sorry, but in this day and age no way is a Canberra ‘complex’. Probably a cover up for ‘not being able to understand aircraft design and engineering pre-computer days’.

    I served on Canberras in the ’60s. A delightful aircraft in every way which, because of its excellent design, was a pleasure to fly and maintain. It was / is not ‘complex’ or ‘complicated’ in any way (complicated = unable to understand).

    Surely it is Malta, not malta.

    OK, I will stop ‘M’ picking. But at least I read what the boss had to say. Thank you Sir for your efforts and those of your Flight. Well done!

    Season’s Greetings to all.

    Well done all invloved. I shall never forget my time on the Canberra B(I)8 in Germany during the 60’s. To this day, it was the only aircraft that I have found that was designed to fly and be serviced.

    And, please, when you make the board to stand in front of her, she is an English Electric Canberra. Not BAC, BAe or any other claimants.

    What happened to WP803? Had many looks at its back side (from the cockpit of a glider).

    Just slightly concerned here. It appears to be flying (engine running and gear, sorry chassis, tucked up)…….. but no pilot 😮
