Iconic Vulcan Howl Sounds " XL426 Twilight Taxi Run at Southend Airport " ( 18/05/24 )

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Vulcan XL426 makes a real long beauty of a howl on the static blast. The brakes did well holding back all that thrust.
It then performed a high speed taxi run making another nice resonating howl down the Southend airport runway, before deploying the chute and rolling past my position. Lovely seeing this bird up close and must say it's in fine fettle.

    The problem is that BAE has no one who can work on the Vulcans flying controls that's why 558 can not fly anymore. It's all fly by wire and computers.

    Great to see this magnificent beast in action again. Loved watching this with my dad at RAF Valley in the late 70s and early 80s. On reflection it’s probably the cause of the six to seven different tones of tinnitus I’ve had all my life. Worth it.

There's plenty of ways the gov wrongfully squander our money but this is totally different.. this is folks paying to be entertained by heritage. 10 grand is not a lot of money really especially spread over a few hundred folks
