For those not in the South West the Sea Vixen flew this afternoon after its winter lay up, it went down as far as Culdrose and did some approaches before returning to Yeovilton

By chance I happened to be at the point where base joins final to Culdrose 30. The sight of her with the gear and flaps down as she made the finals turn was indeed very pretty. She sounded nice too. It was quite an unexpected treat.

But didn’t they operate the Vixen last year?

A looong way to go before the doubters will be proved wrong: one flight is neither an airshow season, nor the many which she has flown prior to today.
Not one to side with either, but for now a good start.

That’s good news. Happy to see those involved proving the doubters wrong 🙂
