English Electric Canberra

I took this photograph at the Air Display at the Yorkshire Air Museum at RAF Elvington on a damp and overcast day in July 2010.
It's an English Electric Canberra, a light bomber designed to replace the de Havilland Mosquito which had served the RAF so well during the Second World War. The Canberra entered service with the RAF in 1951, and the last one was withdrawn from service in 2006.
