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

Thanks Ozzy Wink

I think that she makes a good case for payware. Especially with part of the price going to the Vulcan Fund.

Awesome, and the real thing is one step closer to flying after the Heritage lottery fund granted the second application for funds!!!!

Can't wait for the patch for this (unless I've missed it...?)

Even more important we all get this plane, VTS still need to raise £600K of their own funds to go with the provisional grant of £2.5million...

Thanks swanny338 Wink

Hi Habu - a patch has been released, but it doesn't fix everything. Having said that, I find that she flies better in FS2004 than in FS2002. (I was sometimes a victim of the 'death dive' Angry

).

Hi Hot Charlie - Wouldn't it be great to see her flying again Grin

Cheers Paul

I love this plane, one of the best payware items I ever brought. Just stunning and nice to see it flying in 2K4.
Now lets just hope VTS gets that last bit of funding and we all get to see this awesome aircraft in our skies again soon.

I can only just remember seeing her flying in the mid/late 80's and early 90's, but it is one memorable aeroplane though...

Hi Charlie

I will always remember the 'elephant trumpet' of the engines as they wound up to full power just before take-off. Grin

Nothing on the airshow scene, and I mean nothing, comes close to the Vulcan. It is a real show stopper. All those people too young to have seen XH558 display will get a real treat if and when they see this awesome aircraft in its element.

I'm too young to have seen the Vulcan flying, but I really would love to see it in the air again. I can imagine what a unique aircraft it is Wink
