For Beeayeate
The Oz Canberra was A84-248.
It was one of the fleet of flight test aircraft we had at the Oz Test Centre called Aircraft Research and Developmen Unit.
248 was instrumented with all of that orange stuff signifying flight test useage.
The Oz Canberras all ended up with that double pole isolating switch isolating power to the elevator trim system.
Took 248 to Darwin/Tropics once to flight test a water cooled flying suit at low level high humidity conditions. Suit had lots of fine tubing throughout connected to a mini pump circulating iced water. Worked fine.
Suit was being developed for astronaut use by UK boffins.
Must pull a few more unusual Oz Canberra stories from the memoirs.
