Two aircraft, WT478 (seen here) and WJ877, were painted in the colours and markings of the Canberra prototype VN799, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the type's first flight on 13 May 1949. The aircraft in this photo is the flying aircraft, WT478 from 231 OCU RAF Wyton. The spare aircraft was WJ877, which was part of the show's static display.
