Vulcan video tight turns

Post by Seaking »

Just in case anyone has not seen this vid before, it's a vid from the Culdrose airshow in the 1988

Enjoy

Probably the best aircraft to watch displaying, EVER.

Other aircraft may be more historic, faster or more manoeuvrable.
But when it comes to sheer awe :o , nothing can come close to the Vulcan.

Still brings a tear to the eye.

When I was at HMS Ganges in training we had some training near Arbroath for a week of
living in the "wilds" I think it was Lossiemouth we visited for a day not sure now but we got
a tour of a Vulcan. Standing around the nosewheel as it was raining it was like being under
a giant cloud.
While we were there, there was a "scramble" I was in awe of a Vulcan being scrambled, this
huge machine was airbourne is under two minutes. It is indeed a happy memory.

Thanks for the Link!

Have seen many of the Vulcan Videos out there, but not that one!

Just goes to show how manouverable it was.

Can't wait to see her at an Airshow, may well use an entire camera memory card just on one plane!!
