Front Stbd view of the Nose Section of RAF English Electric Canberra B.2 WH134 Cn TBA. Photo taken in a dark hangar at the Ashburton Aviation Museum at Ashburton Airport NZAS New Zealand on 28Mar2016. The Ashburton Museum has only the forward fuselage of this aircraft on display (which is mounted on a trailer), acquired in late 2005. Canberra WH134 was an Royal Aircraft Establishment example (wearing ‘Raspberry Ripple’ livery ), which made history when it was used in the first UK jet air-to-air refuelling trials, successfully topping up an English Electric Lightning. It was in pristine, near-concours condition when it was cut up. (Ref: Museum website.)
