On the way back from our hospital review meeting, most upset and grumpy, I had a text from Lee123 to say "hope you're ready, she's coming your way!"
Could it be? Really??
I phoned him, but there was no answer so I called Gully who confirmed the Twitter message saying she was due to overfly Filton (Rolls Royce
) at 13:00 - it was now 12:05 so there was just time to take Nanny home, pick up the video camera and leg it back to Filton for her arrival.....
Here's the pics I took, and Checkflaps will post the video he took later once it has uploaded to You Tube!














And this was the Vulcan effect outside Airbus
:
It was great to see her in this area, first time in many many years and a nice thing for the staff at Rolls Royce. I think she was piloted by Phil O'Dell, the Rolls Royce test pilot who flies their Spitfire PRXIX... cool beans!
EDIT: Here's CF's video from today -
Enjoy!
