This was filmed on an old analogue video camera back in 1992 at the RAF Finningley Airshow.
This was the Vulcans last show at Finningley before it retired.
Sorry about the Quality & the weather that day was rubbish.
Hope you like.

  • im listening in a headset and just to let you know the split audio is simpl annoying

  • Your the only one to complain Trev

  • This is an historic bit of film, the end of an era as it was, the fact shes up and running again is an awesome prospect and i cant wait to see her at one of the airshows this year. I was 15, and at wroughton a few months earlier helping out on the sally b tent, i remember seeing her cruise into the distance as someone said out loud 'the vulcans going, last time youll see it.'as it disapeared behind the trees, i knew i'd miss the iconic displays she was capable of. cracking video mate, nice one!!

  • Thankyou so much, I'm glad everyone is liking my film.

  • This was my second airshow as a 6 year old (after church Fenton the same year). Car sick on the way there, had to piss at the side of the car as we parked up as I was busting and god awful display weather. Still the Vulcan was breathtaking. I was already hooked on aircraft by then but this was just unbelievable. Seeing the Concorde and Vulcan at the same show was awesome. A great nostalgia trip thanks!

  • i love the nose-up touch and go !

  • I saw her at Finngley in 91 (I was 11 at the time)

    When we arrived my Dad checked the programme to see what time the Vulcan was flying.

    I said something like "whats so special about the Vulcan?"

    He laughed and said "you'll see".

    When the Vulcan took off - the ground shook and all the car alarms went off.

    I was awe struck as she flew over and I heard the famous Vulcan howl. I've loved the plane ever since!

  • Majestic plane!

  • I remember it well, sad day. Actually been in the cockpit too. Glad she is back flying once again. (I do agree about the music tho' shuda let the engines speak 4 themselves)

  • I remember it well, sad day. Actually been in the cockpit too.

  • @superemposed

    Sorry to nitpick. Engines are Bristol Olympus 20,000# thrust each

    (no reheat).Last Avons were flying in the Lightnings. These are

    high velocity flow turbojets and they sound VERY nice thankyou!

  • THREADS!

  • Great Mate. I remember people saying due to the weather the Vulcan would not be showing once again she proved them wrong.
