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 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)

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!

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

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!!
