That is so true Hagar pal. The combined sight and sound of the Vulcan is unmatched by anything on the scene today.


The closest I can think would be the B1B. At RIAT in 2001 we had a wee incident where a few "spectators" (they hadn't paid and were sitting outside the perimeter inline with the runway) were literally "blown away" by the B1b's take off...

I was at that show Charlie and I remember the incident. More fool them for standing there in the first place.
The pilot rolled the B-1 at that show, first time I've seen that with a B-1. I was impressed.
