Not yesterday, but the only time I've seen it in flight was over Curborough a couple of years ago. A sight and sound to behold!!!

Vulcan = epic! :notworthy:

I'm lucky as where I live its quite a regular sight practising its display etc. Its usually accompanied by a Lancaster, DC3 and the amazing soundtrack of the Spitfire & Hurricane! :happy2:

If you live anywhere near to Elvington that seems to be favourite for a practice display by the various aircraft.

Yesterday she was coming back from Northern Ireland and Blackpool.  :smiley:

Must be an awesome sight when unexpected! Saw it at Goodwood this year - fantastic looking aircraft.

Don't think so, as I am at Goodwood Revival this year and XH558 is listed on the program as performing some flybys. Will be a sad day when she is grounded, that's for sure...
