I grew up in the UK but my primary school had a ANZAC cemetery next to it where victims of the Spanish flu were buried. We would commemorate ANZAC day each year and all all our classes were named after Australian and New Zealand cities, one of them being Canberra. Always find it strange when people say can-bear-a just cause we were taught how to pronounce it properly at school.

[@firetruck1255]

in the UK we tend to get it right, but yeah outside of the commonwealth especially you get that. Especially since in the US, they tend to have quite a lot of place names taken from England. So pronouncing those "their way" reinforces that assumption, leading to "Birmingham" being "ber-ming-ham" and not "burm-ingum" for example

[@jonathanzobel1662]

So my grandfather worked on the B-57 in Alaska and anytime someone mentions that bomber he tells this story. He and his crew got another B-57 in for maintenance and their CO was pushing to get it ready in double time so it could participate in low level intruder training. Basically a B-57 would fly out from the base and then try to sneak back in under the radar. So my grandfather gets the work done on time and then takes the day off to go moose hunting with a buddy of his. They get out to the woods and start trekking through the snow when my grandfather hears a jet overhead. He looks up just as a B-57 roars by at less than 800 feet. It does a circle around him and his buddy, effectively scaring off all moose in the area, before moving on to the base. The B-57 was so low my grandfather could see the tail number. It was the same one he fixed the day before. He never had another chance to go moose hunting and to this day is still livid with that pilot for ruining his chances.

The camberra was one of the more normal looking designs by the guy who drawn blueprints for wyvern and lightning as well. I absolutely like to troll in GRB with the B Mk.2 with its 4,000 pounder. The RB-57D, a variant of the canberra was also the first plane to be shot down by SAM in history, so it would be an unfortunat first-time record for it.

[@davidewhite69]

one of my first jobs in my RAAF maintenance career was to service batteries. I fondly remember the day 3AD quietly restored a recently retired Canberra to airworthy condition for a fly over of the Chief of the Air Force's parade (he was an ex Canberra pilot). My task was to service the enormous main battery, which comprised of four lead acid batteries on a pallet/rack, and the emergency battery, a small nicad battery.

[@ianhobbs4984]

What do I think about the Canberra? When I left school at 15 I went to work at Aircraft Servicing Flight at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus on B2,B4 and PR7. Canberra's so at 15 it was a dream job although I never joined the RAF. now 64 years later I still remember the Canberra with fondness.

[@ODST_Parker]

Hey Gaijin, maybe don't put unarmed bombers with no countermeasures at the same BR with air-spawning attackers that have missiles? That'd be great! I'd rather not have the ability to survive past a couple minutes be determined entirely by whether or not someone notices my plane's existence.

[@FutureFlash2034]

When will we get the aircraft inbetween the Lincoln and the Canberra? The Washington B Mk.1???? We are still missing this iconic RAF aircraft that had it's role replaced by the Canberra and V-bombers. Similarly when will we get the V-Bombers? The Buccaneer was the replacement for the F-111K which was to be the replacement for the TSR.2 which was made to replace the aging V-Bomber fleets. We are missing so many bombers inbetween that will work within the current game which us Bomber mains are still waiting for since 2013.

In service testing against the Meteor's of the time - the tests were so unfair - and the results so bad for the Meteors that they forced Canberra's into operational areas that suited the Meteors. Until that happened, the Meteors failed in trying to deal with the Canberra's. The RAF pilots of high flying Canberra's were seconded into the US high altitude programs. Its window was short were it was a world beater. But it was in that window a world beater, and long after its halcyon days it served in multiple duties.
