The Alpha and Omega of the Martin RB.57 Canberra.

[canberra kid]

The mark the anniversary of the first flight of the Martin B.57 Canberra I posted what I considered to be the Alpha and Omega of the type. A few people thought that the B.57G was not the true representative of the Omega, instead it should have been the RB/WB.57F. The F may represent the ultimate development of the Canberra family but even with my slim grasp of the English language I'm sure F comes before G also in reality the RB.57F is not a Canberra but a General Dynamics product. The biggest and only slightly less impressive long wing development of the Canberra family was the RB.57D.

Those wings could double up as aircraft carriers! Kudos on the conversions.

Looks like the wingspan is longer than the Wright Brothers' first flight. Great work!
