Stirling bomber id

Hello

I was wondering if anyone knew about a Stirling bomber that was bought by the town of Stirling for the RAF.

I know there isn't much to go on but any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.

Regards

Graeme

Re: Stirling bomber id

Isn't there a book called something like Names with Wings or the other way round that gave details of hundreds of presentation aircraft for the RAF?

According to said book, Stirlings were bought by East India Fund, Gold Coast Fund, Kingston Jamaica and Lady Rachel MacRobert; no mention of Stirling
