1968 Farnborough Airshow: A Majestic Flypast of the RAF Handley Page HP-80 Victor K-1A Tanker V-Bomber and Two EE Lightnings This evocative photograph captures the essence of the 1968 Farnborough Airshow, showcasing the majestic flypast of the Royal Air Force's (RAF) Handley Page HP-80 Victor K-1A Tanker V-Bomber in formation with two English Electric Lightning interceptors. The airshow, held at RAF Farnborough Common in Hampshire, England, was a significant event in the aviation calendar, attracting thousands of spectators and showcasing the latest military and civilian aircraft. The Handley Page HP-80 Victor K-1A, registration V-Bomber, is a remarkable sight in this image. As a V-bomber, it was designed for long-range strategic bombing missions, but its versatility extended to aerial refuelling, as seen here. The K-1A variant was the first to be used for this purpose, equipped with a refuelling probe and hose-drum unit. The Victor's impressive size and powerful jet engines make for a striking contrast against the smaller, agile EE Lightnings. The EE Lightning, represented by two examples in this flypast, was a versatile and formidable interceptor, capable of both day and night operations. Its sleek design and advanced avionics made it a popular choice among RAF pilots. The Lightning's presence at the 1968 Farnborough Airshow underscored the UK's commitment to maintaining a cutting-edge military aviation capability. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of military aviation in the United Kingdom and the technological advancements that defined the era. The RAF Handley Page HP-80 Victor K-1A Tanker V-Bomber and EE Lightnings are symbols of the innovation, power, and precision that continue to captivate audiences at airshows around the world.
