As there is now a little thread creep: the last flight of a UK Military registered Buccaneer was by XW988 from Boscombe Down in Feb or Mar 1995. It was flown by Maj Rick Husband USAF as the last flight of his exchange tour on Fixed Wing Test Squadron (not sure who was in the back seat). Rick sadly perished in the 'Columbia' accident but we must not forget his connection to the Bucc.
