    Some video I shot at the air show recently. Best listened to a max
    volume and high bass levels. Fully Work Safe.

    Gorgeous. Such a shame we don't have an equivalent of the Confederate
    Airforce.

    Vulcan must have been a sitting duck for IR seeking SAM's though!!

  4. V nice. I was somewhat miffed to read the XM655 web pages recently to
    find XH558 had done three passes over Wellesbourne in the last few
    weeks. Goddammit I even missed the members day.

    Some pics here: http://vulcanxm655.fotopic.net/ including a very nice
    one of the cockpit (front and back, just scroll down the main page a
    bit).

    Certain Argentines may not be too keen.

    It flew very low, right over my house on Sunday while I was gardening.
    Not as loud as I remembered it as a child. Still, very exciting to see
    it again after all this time and seeing you lot write on here about
    it :)

  8. My office is across the street from Peterson AFB. This morning, four
    F-22s took off, got to about 500 feet and then turned and ascended
    vertically. Fucking impressive.
