What a great day it was..Turn the sound up !

Awesome bird of prey.....I always flash back to the Bond movie Thunderball when I see a picture of a Vulcan. One of the few opportunities here in the USA to see one flying, if only on film.

I love where she turns after passing overhead. The sun glints on the delta wing and the crackling sound of those engines is awesome..The sound was making the ground and your heart shake ! :drummer:

Man, Joe, you nailed that! Right place.

Very nice Joe, I went to an Air show in Herne bay in September where the Vulcan and Euro fighter were strutting their stuff. This is the last year to see the Vulcan, you will never see it flying again.

Yes a bit of luck to be on the line that she tracked out on , considering there was a boundary in effect to view from of about 30 miles !

Just used my little Samsung Galaxy...The lighting was very kind ..A very memorable experience..:f4:

Hi Joe,she's out and about this weekend on ANOTHER farewell tour,not sure if she's heading your way but if you go on the Vulcan website it shows the routes for the weekend

I went to see it fly over Bruntingthorpe on the farewell tour back in October. But I went on my Kawasaki 550 winter hack, I hadn't picked up my 1090 then
