Lovely shot, one of the many fine jets to come out of GB in the Golden Age.
Cheers Rich

Nice picture... I always remember the sentence: "The only bomber that can replace a Buccaneer is a Buccaneer"

Thanx for the nice comments
To me the Buccaneer is still the best low-level bomber ever built. Hard as a rock and extremely powerful, but also very nimble to fly. Knew a guy that flew them for the South African Air Force during the Bush War in Angola (late 70's to early 80's). I can remember that he often spoke very highly of this aircraft
Only flying Buccaneers now in private ownership (Thunder City - Cape Town International Airport).
