XX889 / T (cn B3-05-73) This Gulf War veteran, stored for some time at Staverton, is owned by the Blackburn Buccaneer Society and is in the process of restoration. It is seen here outside the new Delta Jets hangar at Kemble. (The desert pink colour scheme makes it look almost obscenely naked in this view, the oblique sunlight highlighting its cellulite and stretch marks…) |

XN957 / LM-630 (cn B3-12-62) Easily idenitfiable as an S1 by the small intakes compared to the S2. This first service version of the Buccaneer was underpowered, leading to the definitive S2. |

XN964 (cn B3-19-62) Newly restored to its former glory, this Buccaneer wears an oil tanker kill marking just below the forward cockpit in recognition of its part in destroying the crippled oil tanker The Torrey Canyon after running aground off Land's End in 1967. |

XN957 / 630 (cn B3-12-62) (Ex 736 Naval Air Squadron, Royal Naval Air Station Lossiemouth) seen on display at a very wet Air Day. This was one of the first colour slides I ever took. Possibly still with NASU (Naval Aircraft Servicing Unit) when this photograph was taken, but would later be displayed at the Fleet Air Arm Museum. |

XK531 / LM (cn B3-05-60) This Buccaneer first flew in May 1961 and was part of a pre-production batch, initially used in trials before flying with proving and training units at RNAS Loussiemouth. The maintenance number 8403M was allocated, and became a gate guardian at RAF Honington where it was repainted in 736 NAS markings. XK531 was removed to Boscombe Down before being transferred by Chinook Helicopter on 5th December 1984 to The Defence Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Centre (an RAF Unit). Scrapped circa 1993. |
