Re: Buccaneer to leave these shores
It left the UK, or rather Exeter just before midday on Sunday on its first stage of its ferry flight. That now leaves only one, perhaps two, in the UK that can be made airworthy

She sure made a big exit!!!
Went past my window at approx 1500' heading back to the airport where she got lower and faster and faster and lower. Did what I can only describe as a bombing run at the runway, left turn past her hangar before climbing and making her way off the the east.
A fine sight, sorry to see her go.
