    Cool plane!
  • Roly said:
    This is a 'target tug' paint job. They were used as such by the Canadian Air Force during the war.
  • Stig Jarlevik said:
    Pity we can't see the complete paint job on this one. The visible digits 60 does not fit any of the known deliveries to RCAF.... Stig

    Still waiting for your write up as I say this but.. were the guns 'proven' on Tyneside or taken elsewhere for testing? I can't imagine huge bangs along the river! Mind, stranger things happened..

    Hi [https://www.flickr.com/photos/flyeye] this one was taken at Silloth-on-Solway, although Ridsdale in Northumberland was also frequently used.
