Crashed at RAF Marham on 2nd September 2004 while performing a touch and go during a night training sortie. All three crew ejected but, tragically, both pilots were outside the ejection seat envelope and were killed. The navigator survived but was badly injured. This was the last Canberra loss in RAF service. This photo is copyright © John Allan, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
