Ah yes that was a good day although it was a bit of a disappointment for photography. The RAF got us a Hercules to take some air-to-airs of the Canberras during the morning but the damned thing went u/s after take-off so the sortie was scrubbed and we came straight back to Wyton without so much as a single picture grr!
Interesting as I was going through some of my audio recordings yesterday and this one came up... The Herc crew actually fixed the 'snag' and were VERY keen to fly the sortie, even offering to stay late to accommodate. Unfortunately "Sunray" (the Boss) decided otherwise as the priority was for all the Canberra's to be lined up for the ground photoshoot.
