Yup, I too went to Canberras, but so did hundreds of others. In those days there were Canberra Sqns in UK, Germany, Malta, Near East, Middle East & Far East. I went to just one of the 4 Canberra Sqns at Akrotiri, No 73. I suspect soon that the RAF will have less aeroplanes than Akrotiri had in the 60s. Four strike/attack Sqns, 1 fighter Sqn, 1 helicopter flt and a transport Sqn.
