Four Vulcans XM657, XL427, XM575 and XM648 are about to scramble at the last airshow where Vulcans were present in great numbers. It is a pity that it was impossible to save the sound as it is only in my memory that I feel the ground shake. Despite the magnificence of the last, now grounded Vulcan, G-VLCN, it was much lighter than these with the engines understandably downrated to preserve their life.

Until I started to sort my slides, I had forgotten how many Vulcans actually flew at this display. Here the aircraft is seen landing with airbrakes extended. The ground shook when these aircraft took off.

This aircraft is operated as part of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and at the time it was the only airworthy Lancaster in the world. It has worn a variety of codes over the years and is seen here landing as AJ-G though this was before it had been named.

Four Vulcans XM657, XL427, XM575 and XM648 are about to scramble at the last airshow where Vulcans were present in great numbers. It is a pity that the sound was not saved and attached as in my memory I feel the ground shake. It will be great to see one of these aircraft in the air again soon.

This was the last airworthy Mosquito and it was owned by British Aerospace. First flying in 1940 the Mossie was a very effective, fast all wooden aircraft and over 7000 were built. Tragically, this aircraft crashed and was destroyed killing both crew at Barton, Manchester during a display on 27th July 1996.

This aircraft was actually still operated by British Aerospace at the time and is carrying a special livery as the first F.2. This is a panned shot on Kodachrome 25 with the aircraft about to take-off with full re-heat.
