Great video. I used to fly in those to Africa in the 60's as a boy

Was there a failure on the way to Calgary?. I don't understand why they would do a weeks maintainance in Canada when Brize Norton is only 8 ish hours away...... hope the crew had fun in Vancouver .

Just want to let everyone know that the man standing on the engine mount is perfectly safe. His giant brass balls are weighing him down preventing him from being sucked in. LOL.

Hello A .. When possible I always strive to include the people involved .. as it makes for a lot more interesting video than just the aircraft. The trick is to film in the least obtrusive manner possible. Having you all here was fantastic .. !!! I very much appreciate Gary B's help. The VC10 is such a special aircraft ... it needs to be documented as much as possible .. while we can. Please let me know when the DVD safely arrives. I posted it yesterday. Cheers, HT
