The Vulcan

[Paul Creasey]

Hi Bill,

You really ARE an Ace!
Seen all the photos of this incident, but never knew there was a vid too! Thank you so much!

Regards
Paul.

P.S. Case dismissed through lack of evidence!

Paul,

Thanks M'lud, great to see British justice is alive and well!

Nice to see the Vulcan in the air again (on it's way home after the Bournemouth air show today).

I was at the Bournemouth air show yesterday and saw it all including the Vulcan. It was interesting to note that the commentator said the Vulcan is now 10 tons lighter than when it was in military service as the bombing radar has been removed. Did I hear that right, 10 tons?

Good to see it flying again.

I wasn't at the air show. I saw it flying over whilst I enjoyed a family gathering in the New Forest.

Happy New Year all!

Now, down to business at hand. Recently 'discovered, downloaded and thoroughly enjoyed the video on the Vulcan (and Victor's) Falklands involvement. No doubt many have already seen it, and it may well be mentioned somewhere in the 'annals' of this thread, but here it is:

Please grab a stff drink, don your flying gear ans sit back and enjoy (it goes for a while).
