Glanzed tip edit

The redesign is mentioned twice, once for 1947 and once in the prototype testing in 1949. Which of these is correct? Ciao --Pentaclebreaker (talk) 06:07, 29 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

1952 British Canberra in northern california edit

There is an existing 1952 mark 4 English electric Canberra sitting at redding municipal airport in redding, ca. 2600:6C5D:4D00:365A:105:60B4:8704:D78A (talk) 19:43, 23 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Error about surviving aircraft edit

Near the beginning of the "Surviving aircraft" section, it says this:

"Several ex-RAF machines and RB-57s remain flying in the US for research and mapping work. About 10 airworthy Canberras are in private hands today, and are flown at air displays."

But down the page a bit, under "Australia", it says this:

"The museum’s Canberra is now the only airworthy example in the world, apart from three that are still in use with NASA for research purposes.[202]"

Clearly, something somewhere needs to be reconciled or corrected. TooManyFingers (talk) 05:56, 11 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
