A-Brief-History-Of-R-A-F-Honington
Continuing our brief history of RAF Honington, Part 4a. The Buccaneer Years (I had originally planned that ‘Part 4’ would include both the Buccaneer and the subsequent Tornado years but lack of time to research and space in the ‘Rag’ to tell the tale has meant that I have had to separate the two periods. Apologies for this but the Tornado years will appear in the next issue of the Rag.) As was mentioned at the end of the last instalment; following the departure of the ‘Vee’ bombers, RAF Honington was placed in ‘reserve’ for conversion to accept the American-built General Dynamics F-111 super-sonic swing-wing bomber. Like many Government decisions, the purchase of these aircraft was cancelled, (like the planned TSR-2 before it and which the F-111 was planned to ‘replace’), although F- 111’s were a frequent sight in local skies as the USAF 48th Tactical Fighter Wing operated these aircraft from Lakenheath from 1977 to 1992. With the ‘loss’ of the F-111, the base was scheduled to receive the ‘unwanted’ Hawker Siddeley (Blackburn) Buccaneer. I say ‘unwanted’ because, although previously ‘offered’ to the RAF as a replacement for their Canberras in the low-level role, the Buccaneer was originally designed as a low- level ship-borne attack aircraft and indeed many of the later RAF Buccaneers were redundant Royal Navy aircraft that became surplus following the reduction in the Navy aircraft carrier fleet. (For a more detailed history of the Buccaneer, and especially the example that sits as a ‘gate guardian’ at Honington today, refer to my article Buccaneer XK526.) So it was that in November 1969 the first Buccaneers arrived at Honington and deliveries continued during the early 1970’s. -

I had to know how clapped out Iof The Crucible of War, the third volume of Halifaxes were; and I had to find out whether the official history of the Royal Canadian Air the allocation of aircraft was biased along Force, Ben Greenhous and I wondered whether national lines. What I found was that Harris we should adopt a chronological or topical exaggerated somewhat; that he did not allocate organisation. I preferred the latter; Ben the aircraft on national lines; and, perhaps not former. He was the principal author; he got his surprisingly, that bomber crews who survived a way – he was right, of course, I now admit freely; tour on Halifaxes were quite happy with their and his instructions to me were “to write an aircraft.
