XV863

The Buccaneer involved was XV863, it was late 83 or 84, I think 84. Nav ejected after a birdstrike which broke the canopy and the blast screen. It was on 16 at the time, I think, landed at Lossie.
I only remember because I replaced the blast screen and repaired the fuel tanks where the bits of canopy went through.
It, and me, ended up on the OCU, CC was its code in 85.
Hope that helps.
Cheers.
