This long-nosed RAF Buccaneer can be found in the interesting Shannon Aviation Museum. The museum depicts the importance of Shannon airfield, one of Europe's most Western airports, the starting point for many transatlantic flights. XX897 was upgraded with a Foxhunter radar of the Tornado ADV. This photo is copyright © Wim Sonneveld, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
