The howl those engines make really do make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck!! I have been there the last 3 years and have no intention of ever missing another of her displays!! 😉

She could do it

If needed, she could climb out of there on that runway length like a bat out of He** 😎

Ahhh nice to see though sadly Wellesbourne is probably at approx 1000 years too short to accommodate a Vulcan takeoff. 655 landed there under her own steam.

You really believe it could takeoff and go for a jolly though.

I learnt to fly there 🙂

Nice to see footage of a Vulcan moving under her own power after so long without one.

It would be neat to see her fly with 558 or at least both be together only once! Wonder if 558 could land there?

Wow. Great clip.

I have watched it five times but everytime he throttles back!

Frustration or what.

Congrats to all the team for keeping her in great condition. What they have achieved should not be overshadowed by 558.
