Well, you all know the target by now, so on with the mission!

Ready to go. Avro Vulcan B.2

Powering out of London Heathrow. The spectators at Terminal Four are running for their ear plugs!

Tight turn around Canary Wharf. This will wake up a few Yuppies!

Primary Target: Tower Bridge

Full power on and hope we don't go swiming!

And up she comes! Mission complete.

Up where she belongs, Avro Vulcan B.2 XH558. Simply Awesome.

Beautiful shots of a beautiful aircraft Roger.

PS. Ken, you can find some Vulcans in FS2k downloads, but they aren't that great in 2k2.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Some of you aint gonna like this but I believe you can't call yourself an aircraft enthusiast and not even consider buying this. Its not just the fs2002 aircraft its to get the vulcan back in the sky.

Well Whitey pal, after working hard all month, I like to treat myself to a new "toy" now and then. Besides, I can get away with spending £20 on this because it's all done on the computer so Pam does not know I'm wasting money again Grin

(Although paying £10 towards the Vulcan to the Skies campaign is by no means a waste!)

Thanks guys, I had great fun doing these shots. I did try to get right under the bridge, but I either cut through it with the tail or turned my nuclear bomber into a nuclear sub!

I'd be more concerned about Ken Livingstone chasing me for not paying the London City Centre congestion charge!

Yeah, I tried it, but there is not enough clearance for the tail and I either sliced through the bridge or went swiming!
