The mysterious Canberra at Swanton Morley

The Canberra mentioned in the website was delivered by "long-loader" to RAF Swanton Morley in 1975.
It was acquired so that the trainees at the RAF School of NDT could gain practical experience.
A Canberra was used because at the time it was the type which suffered most from stress corrosion cracking in the centre section forging and various other type of defects.
