Kemble Airfield (Wiltshire) Canberra and another RAF plane

Thought you guys might appreciate the photos I took of a Canberra whilst walking; the pictures were taken on my phone so are not great quality but was shocked to see this just sat here. There is also another plane which I believe is a hawker hunter!

They are up for sale if you feel so inclined.

I would be interested, if only I had the cash :P

 

Would be awesome to see someone buy them to display at shows. It would be a definite winner for me

The Canberra did a taxi run at the last Kemble show I attended. I think that there was talk of it needing flightworthy engines...and probably a lot of money!

Those hangars used to be full of Hunters stored on Anti Det servicing, around 1980 the Buccs were grounded due to wing fatigue checks/repairs. Dig out the Hunters ! The Hunters were released and the RAF was reintroduced to them. 1980 Fairford USAF at home type thing was a blast with these coming in real low , proper airshow, when it was worth watching !
