Vulcan over Florida xp11.

Fantastic shots Ian, I have a lasting legacy from the Vulcans, high frequency deafness!!:banghead:  used to refuel them back in the early 70's the howl of the engines as they practised asymmetrical overshoots was something to hear, far louder than a normal take-off.

 

Whilst waiting to refuel one I  parked the bowser just in front and went up into the cockpit for a look round, for such a large aircraft I was taken back by how much of a squeeze it was to sit in the pilots' seat and how small the compartment was for the rear crew.  

 

Would have loved to have had a flight in one but alas, no chance, still, I got a flight up in a Canberra with 85 Sqdn when they came to our station whilst they had their runway re-surfaced but had to sit alongside the navigator as the trainer (T5 I think it was called) was unserviceable, just about as good as being in the back of the Vulcan........could see very little! 

 

Regards

Nigel.

Just came to me, Just Flight are presently converting the FSX, P3d Vulcan to X-Plane 11.  Now that is something worth waiting for.
