pr00ne, during one of the Canberra's visits, I recognized the pilot as someone I knew from a previous station where we had both served. He was definitely RAF. The aircraft was a Canberra PR7 because it featured the domed canopy, unlike the fighter canopy employed on the B57. The odd thing that fuels my theory is that on each of the occasions it visited, it returned again the next day, which it could only do if it landed somewhere else during the time it was absent from Labuan.
