this vid really really doesnt give the jet much justice,,,just saw this at southport airshow yesterday and the noise was almost too much to bear,,the howl of those engines as it does a flyby is something everyone should hear,,loudest thing ive ever heard
First video of about 10 that demos how loud Vulcan engines are--godawful sky-filling scream. Bravo. Too bad the one at Merced, CA, air museum can't be started up just for that memorable noise.
He was telling a porky when he said no more Vulcan displays. We`ve been lucky enough to see her three times at the Bournemouth Air Festival thats just been. The Vulcan is a truely amazing jet. :-)
The engines sound great, but I don't believe he really gave it much throttle. Mind you, one of the engines had only just been put back in that week so he was probably being gentle with it.
I was there too. Made it in just before the gates were locked. The howl of the engines on the Vulcan makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Today was no exception. Brilliant video, thanks for posting.
Good stuff. I filmed the old beast at Waddington last year, what a treat that was. I'll be at Duxford in September...here's hoping for good weather and serviceability!

One of my earliest childhood memories was hearing that howl at Leuchars.
Absolutely unforgettable. (Microphones do no justice).

Wow, I still remember how it felt the first time this flew over my head at Biggin Hill all those years ago...
My ribcage was shaking, and car alarms were going off all over the place too.
I missed it there this year, really pissed off about it.

Went to Cosford today 20 years since I last went. Made my hair stand on end when I heard the engines howl like only the vulcan can.
