Just another idle musing.
I'd not previously heard of this circumstance of a Meteor shooting down a Canberra. From Wikipedia: "During the Suez Crisis, the RAF performed high altitude reconnaissance flights over Syria by
English Electric Canberra aircraft from bases in Cyprus. Lacking radar to track the aircraft, the Syrian Air Force developed a ground spotter network that reported information by telephone to intercept the flights. On 6 November 1956, a Syrian Meteor shot down a Canberra of
No. 13 Squadron RAF, which crashed in Lebanon."
Which other unusual or little-known aircraft combat combinations can you think of? I'm particularly interested in jets, but there's no need to limit it to that. Open slather please...
