In answer to your question I believe it was 1992 for Southend Airshow at least. (Pictures on Flickr).
My fondest memory was being directly under a Vulcan doing acrobatics down to a few hundred feet on air brakes at an early Mildenhall Air Show around 1982? Dangerous but superb experience! Great video record. Thanks for posting.
We live right by the seafront and as such take the Air Show a bit for granted i'm afraid ( living here year in year out ) however yesterday i was helping my son with some of his homework upstairs in the office when i heard a roar of jet engines unlike anything else i have heard in recent years other than a low flying Concorde, we both went to the window and saw this magnificent aircraft banking more or less right over our roof, what a privilege to see such an aircraft in the skies, fantastic !
@bikerchickfrommars Yeah, awesome aircraft, always looks like it's banking in slow motion with no noise, then all of a sudden that roarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!! love it...............

It's definitely an awsome aeroplane, pity we can't get a Victor to fly with it.

@Broomehall she 'snuck' up over my chimneys before looping round Southend Airport just after this display. So graceful, and so low!
