Summary

[edit]
Description

IAT 1983, Greenham Common.

I was lucky to be on the photo bus touring the flight lines, when the Vulcan did her show. The crowd was on the north side of the base, facing the sun during the air show. On the bus I had the sun behind me.

And then, when we were on the taxi way and driving back to the north side, the Vulcan was in our way. Or maybe it was the other way round. I could almost touch the wing when it taxied by.

On the nose you can see two mission markings from the Falklands War, and a Brazilian flag. XM597 diverted with fractured in-flight refuelling probe to Rio de Janeiro during one of the 'Black Buck' missions.

XM597 is on display at the National Museum of Flight, East Fortune. She's still wearing the mission markings.
