On the subject of colour these Canberras wore, they were initially silver overall, but repainted orange (not dayglo, just plain orange) overall in the mid '70s. Towards the end of their careers, spares were getting short and the RAF donated a set of wings from a former Canberra TT.18 once operated by 100 Squadron. If their role wasn't confusing enough, this German Canberra continued to fly with its new set of wings, still with the target-tug yellow/black stripes painted beneath them, but the aircraft had nothing to do with target-towing!
