Saw it looking splendid at the duxford airshow today! Beautiful sight

Wasn't it just? My daughter was captivated by her and the Tornado's today. First of many airshows for her I suspect.

ETA - Pics from Duxford today

Just seen the Vulcan route up the coast at Blackpool :-)

he is now routing east over the Pennines towards Elvington so keep your eyes peeled if you are in the area ;-)

I'm working in Doncaster tomorrow and I've never seen the Vulcan.

Well until I went to Southport today that is

First time I've ever been to an airshow but definitely won't be the last.
The traffic was chaos so I parked on the beach near Pontins(if anyone knows where that is) and walked along the beach. It's about four or five miles then walking back to the car it poured down, but I didn't even care as I'd had a really great day.

2800 photo's not had a good go at them yet but here's a few http://www.flickr.com/photos/57637179@N08/sets/721...

That last photo - 558 framed in the archway - is awesome.

That is one of the most amazing photo's of any aircraft I have ever seen. I wonder if the bike racers were aware of what was looming up behind them.

Photo of the year I think.

Seemed to be giving it a little more than when I last saw it at Goodwood last year. Which was nice

Was disappointed it didn't do a fly past TBH. It banked to it's right, right after that picture was taken and just flew away straight and level.

At the BSB meeting a few weeks previously at Cadwell park we had a Spitfire do some low passes and acrobatics for the crowds.
