We were driving home through Upper Bucklebury (Berkshire) at about 16:30 today with the roof down, when a Vulcan bomber flew overhead at about 500 feet. I could not believe my eyes, it's been a good weekend for plane spotting. As I saw a Lancaster flying low over Chatteris on Friday afternoon.

Does anyone know where this Vulcan was heading/been?

Appearing at Chris Evans' carfest in Hampshire & Dunsfold this weekend, so probably between the two.

I parked on the A281 and watched it with my 6 year old daughter, who I'm sad to say was not in the least bit interestedfrown Even when I told her that the dad of a very good friend of ours used to fly the Vulcan!
