A friend sent me this very poor image - any help in ID'ing the a/c would be
appreciated. The photo was taken at Corfe Castle, Dorset, UK in the summer
of 1966.

My first thought was they were Blackburn Beverleys, but they had twin tail
fins which these fuzzy blobs appear not to have. Current thought here is
they *might* have been Meteors.

TIA

I could be persuaded they might even be Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneers.
But Meteors would fit better with the tight formation.

Can't quite get the same aspect, but this is my vote, the Percival
Pembroke.

They are UFO's - Unidentifiable Flying Objects . . . .

;-)

(could even be Canberras)

I'd say Twin Pioneers. A bit too "square cut" for Meteors
