I’m somewhat confused by a number of the replies in this thread, starting with VIPods mention of 7 aircrew in a Canberra in his starting entry. Since the maximum crew in any Mk of Canberra is 3 (B6, B15, B16 etc.) was this at least 3 flights (4 flights in a PR9)?

But later in the thread VIProds again appears to restrict flights to 1 (WH726’s ). Heimdall also appears to be indicating that only one flight took place. This was either a very large Canberra, the facts appear to be incorrect or I have misread something.

Apologies if I have missed any replies which clear up this discrepancy.

Can someone clarify please?
