1. Title: "Canberra at Gibraltar: A Glimpse into the Past of Royal Air Force Aviation" This photograph showcases the English Electric/Short Canberra PR.9 XH135 AG of No.39 Squadron Royal Air Force, as it gracefully touches down at Gibraltar in approximately 1989. The Canberra, a versatile and iconic aircraft, was a mainstay of the RAF's fleet during the late 20th century. The Canberra, a twin-engine jet aircraft, was initially designed for maritime reconnaissance and later adapted for various roles, including photo-reconnaissance, electronic intelligence gathering, and even as a target drone. The PR.9 variant, which is depicted in the image, was the final production model of the Canberra series, featuring advanced avionics and improved engines. No.39 Squadron, one of the oldest and most decorated squadrons in the RAF, has a rich history that spans over 100 years. The squadron's motto, "Sic Itur Ad Astra" (Thus to the Stars), reflects its commitment to innovation and excellence. In the late 1980s, the squadron operated the Canberra PR.9 from RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire, England. The photograph, taken at Gibraltar, offers a unique perspective of the Canberra in action. The Rock of Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory, has long been an important strategic location for military aviation due to its position at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea. The image captures the essence of aviation history, as the Canberra, with its distinctive shape and markings, approaches the runway against the backdrop of the iconic rock. Taken by renowned aviation photographer Peter Butt, this photograph is a testament to the rich heritage of the Royal Air Force and its iconic aircraft, the Canberra. The image is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with an appreciation for the history of military aviation.
