Raspberry Ripple Canberras; what was flying in 1998?

At a car event in Warwickshire at the end of May, 1998, we were overflown by a Canberra in Raspberry Ripple scheme. I'd like to find out which Canberras were flying in that scheme around the time, for a possible future project.

Anyone?

Cheers,
Bill.

I believe you have a few to choose from Bill - from memory alone the B6 Mod (the one now at Brunty with the big nose) was still around then and may have been based out of RAE Bedford. Boscombe Downs T4 I'm pretty sure was flying still then, as was the B(TT)2 which has Yellow/Black undersides.

I stand to be corrected but I think you have 3 possible Raspberries to choose from.

Thanks Gary. I've asked around to see if anyone at the event took pictures, which would make things easier.
I don't remember the extended nose, or yellow undersides, which would make the T4 most likely.

I'll see if anyone comes up with a picture. Problem with car events is what's going on above passes most people by!

Cheers,
Bill.
