This video was a labour of love, I got to dive deep into the story of the amazing Banana Jet, the great Blackburn Buccaneer, I may have gone a little over the top, but hey, it's one of the greatest jets to ever grace the skies, even if those skies where around 20ft above the deck.

I have tried to cover the earlier history and development of the Buccaneer, along with her service and various deployments.

I hope you enjoy the video and please help out the channel but leaving a comment and a like. Many thanks, Joe.
