Door was shut during taxi, as she came to a halt they opened it i presume to let some air inside.

Rob68–

Thanx for sharing those. The serial on this Vulcan looked familiar and sent me to a shelf full of old photo binders…yep, there she were, XL426 parked at London, Ontario, in the pouring rain at the thoroughly washed-out 1982 London International Airshow, with what was left of the crowd trying to use her starboard wing as an umbrella…One of the few times I ever got close to a “live” Vulcan. Wonderful to see the very same Vulcan actually more active in 2006 than she was on that wringing-wet day nearly a quarter century ago!
