Blackburn's Finest

With unseasonably mild temperatures, blue skies and sunshine, both models belonging to the Buccaneer Aviation Group, S2Bs XW544 and XW894, both looked superb in their shiny new coats of paint, XW964’s being her first outing for 12 months following an in depth service and a full re-paint. Glenn Beasley was there for GAR.

Any takes for flying XW544, XW894 or XW964 when in service

As the title to this thread is a little ambiguous as to what was Blackburn's Finest ... all Beverley contributions are most welcome
