RAF Halton Open Day 1978. 1 SoTT - 1 School of Technical Training. The B(I)8 was an interdictor bomber and one of the nicest looking Canberra's with its offset fighter canopy similar to the PR9.

Retired to Halton for ground instruction as 8204M on 06 Feb 1974. Later to PEE Shoeburyness for us as a target. Scrapped during Apr 1991.
