I bought this recently from Just Flight and took it out for a couple of spins.

 

Got the lightning captured just for David :)

 

Enjoy and best wishes.

Thanks for the kind words Jan, and Mr. Zippy you are actually looking at the latest stealth technology: the chameleon texture, or is that related to the mating habits of this bird?.

Strong looking jet and thanks for the great lighting capture! :cool:

Very nice Khalid! Hang on, this "bad boy" is a handful! If you get a chance, go into YouTube and watch some of the videos on the Vulcan! There is one where a few men get together to bring the last flying vulcan back up to flying condition. It is very interesting. Also, they had to have a special hangar large enough to house this aircraft! IT IS HUGE! :rolleyes:

 

Enjoy! Rick :cool:

Trek memes aside, that's a beast of a bird. Always an impressive sight. :) -- Bob

A couple of nice paints on your Vulcan Khalid. I like the first one - a well used aircraft. :cool: :cool: :)

Here you go, Khalid, great YouTube video of the Vulcan!

 

 

Enjoy! Rick :cool:

Great shots Khalid, I've had aircraft with Chameleon textures as well lol.

When I left school I was once working for a builder and the house we were working on, the back garden was looking right on to the runway at EGCD Woodford.

At that time there were Vulcans coming and going, I didn't realise then that those were treasured moments never to be seen again, never took any photos, mind you I never owned a camera then either.

Here's a kind of payload related to the Vulcan!

 

 

David, Rick, Bob, Larry, Colin and Gérard thank you all for your kind words.

 

Rick thank you for the video link. I saw that on Channel 4 at the time. It's an awesome documentary.

 

Colin, I share your regrets, if only I owned a camera or had a camera at hand at certain occasions in the past, I would have had unique pictures of different planes.

 

Gérard I am thankful the Vulcan never dropped one of these in anger.

just flew this plane recenty as "captain joe" reminded us of the vuican and i went out and downloaded a fs9 one and loved flying it..especially with all the sounds i found!...nice screens btw
