whoa thats so damn cool. I love the vulcan. Watched a show on discovery about it, about the cold war nuclear bombers, had the victor too, but the vulcan is so impressive. I have never seen such an impressive take off, starts off gentle, then just goes vertical like a fighter jet! we still make/made the best aircraft in the world.

Never, only ever seen vids. My grandad used to be chief drawing technician at DeHavilland, Hatfield, then at BAe, then for Airbus. He helped design wings for A300, BAe 146, Trident, Dove....
