I got to see an English Electric Canberra flying at a Temora Air Museum flight day. Very impressive machine and it boggled my mind that it was originally introduced to service back in 1951. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8OwMQ3JXKU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8OwMQ3JXKU

Love it. I have only seen the static one at RAF Cosford, they are really nice looking planes. IIRC the one there is white and fitted out for reconnaissance.

  Presumably Anti-Flash White? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-flash_white https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-flash_white

    Highly probably, since several Canberra squadrons were equipped with wither Mark-7 Thor (US) or Red Beard (UK) tactical nuclear devices.
