Vulcan through the Grand Canyon

Like someone else mentioned on another thread I have just started reading “Vulcan 607”

Near the front of the book is an account of Martin Withers taking one of two Vulcans to the USA for participation in “Red Flag”. On the way to Ellis (or should that be Nellis) AFB he took his aircraft into the Grand Canyon.

This must have been witnessed by hundreds of tourists viewing the canyon from it’s rim. Have any photographs of the event ever surfaced?

I have the video of it somewhere, taken from the USAF Radar image, quite interesting.
If I find the vid, I will put it on You Tube.

That would be great ‘903
