Default Vulcan at FOS

Yeah!!!!

A rather conservative display, compared to recent sightings, but still managed the Howl

Wonder what the typhoon will be like?

The Vulcan has been heavily controlled by the CAA now. It is not allowed to do the hooligan antics that we used to do in the good old days. They say that because it is a single aircraft and not supported by the full RAF engineering as it used to be before, they are not prepared to let it have its head. No real reason why it could not do the full business as it always used to.

I would still love to have the chance of flying it but I would feel very frustrated at the present day restrictions which have been placed upon it. I know I would accidentally "slip" from time to time
