Yep, the ole avatar and nomiker refers to 'that' Canberra - WV787...the *ahem* Icing Tanker Aircraft - the one HMG seem to have forgotten to inform the BWC about...
The flight plan below refers to a series of 1968 field trials carried out down here just before you arrived - Porton were trying to zap the aerosol cloud produced during each spray-run, with a laser located on the hill above the Manor.
