You can never ever get bored watching 558 IMO.

Nice video :ymapplause: :ymapplause: :)

... and from just down the road... Vulcans last visit at Hurn in 1991 (c/w with a wing wave :) ) Apologies for the poor sound.

Look Mummy.. there's an aeroplane up in the sky.....

The take off from Hurn was spectacular. Nice to see the Bucc. in the foreground even if it was brief.

Pauls' name was mentioned on the first clip @ 2.29 in :D

Dunno why the B'mth link has the 'jingly jangly' sound to it :( (oh.. BTW - we have an uphill cambered runway too :D )
