Shame we couldn't hear No.2 engine fire up. Would have been excellent to capture this from the port side. The ground start unit sadly drowns it out. So, I love that this beast is being kept alive. But why go to the expense of an engine run to check the alternator if the aircraft is never going to fly? Does it do airshow day taxi runs and the alternator is a go/no go item for that?

These are stunning looking aircraft from a time when Britain and British technology led the world. Power to the volunteers who keep them running.

Great to see. Two comments. Filming from the correct ie port side of the aircraft at start up would have been nice. And a comment on how the alternator performed - the whole point of this exercise - why didn't you at least let us know.

This is fantastic great to see all the volunteers keeping this amazing aircraft ticking over, the Vulcan could roll out of a factory today and still look modern quite an achievement by Avro kudos to all involved you should be proud

@2:55 Now that's what I call a screwdriver.

Sounds like the hand brake was left on

Avro (if it still exists) have every right to be extremely proud of the Vulcan. Marvellous!👏👍

Great to see people involved to keep these old aircrafts in some form of running condition

That's the biggest screw driver I have ever seen!

Hello beautiful. ❤ Its been a while.😉 So is that it.! A bunch of old farts faffin' about...

He always runs while others walk He acts while other men just talk He looks at this world and wants it all So he strikes like Thunderball He knows the meaning of success His needs are more, so he gives less They call him the winner who takes all And he strikes like Thunderball Any woman he wants, he'll get He will break any heart without regret His days of asking are all gone His fight goes on and on and on But he thinks that the fight is worth it all So he strikes like Thunderball

Awesome to see/hear and oldie still breathing!!

Great video mate.

Would love to see the Vulcan flying again.Thankyou for all the work by commited People.

It's a shame I cant smell it from here , jet fuel arhhhhhh

I was at 'Monsters Of Rock' in 1991 when XM655 flew overhead, they drowned out the band that was playing, (Black Crows I think), A magnificent sight!

Great to see she is still a live aircraft. :)

Love It and thankyou.

Wheel hubs a bit squeaky 😮

The last time I worked on a Vulcan, it was white...anti-flash livery...and the Russian Bear was growling....and the Vulcan was a common sight over parts of the UK...and it carried the Blue Steel missile; just in case.

What is the APU off?

Now Donald Trump is getting into the White House again and Putin still in control in Russia, you need to make sure this aircraft is potentially ready to defend our shores again!

Great video thanks 👍

Nice to hear turbines, good to see young blood interested working with on such a magnificent machine that will be a memory for life and a big tick in the logbook of life. . I remember the Vulcans in white livery taking off in threes on patrol in the 60's. Fastest cold start up of any bomber.

Well its good to see a Valcan still getting some attention... I think it was XM655 or other that used to sit on the apron, just outside my office window on 55Sqn as it did a few spins around the base prior to an airshows... epic test flights eh... had to run to the small blister hanger to close Doors/windows as Valcan span out of start-up pan, it would inflate the hanger if doors open... ha, the good old days, eh... fond memorise of good resourceful Tug W, ciao Doug/Pete

I once worked at Bruntingthorpe for a few weeks , there was a vulcan in the hangers there , it was , i think in the process of being restored , it looked a mess , bits of it everywhere, did it ever fly again ?.....what became of it

It's a BAD habit to leave in inlet plugs when you have bleed air on the plane. You never know if a starter control valve will malfunction. It's a habit that was taught to me working on C130s and C17s, pull ALL the plugs if bleed air is on the plane.

Good Steering by Tug Driver reversing

Magnificent aircraft, I have many fond memories of watching her fly over my house at Farnborough during the various airshows, and also of the awesome Vulcan Howl.

Whats the little jet engine on the trolly used for?

I Loved that Thank you, I do need to Visit and will very soon

She’s such a beautiful aircraft and makes such a wonderful noise

Thanks for the excellent video. Just a suggestion for us Spitfire screenshotters - please try to get the full aircraft in the frame in your closeups. Mostly the nose or tail is out of shot. Still, the sound is superb.

Poppy love your music, talent, beautiful style, Intelligence but more importantly Modesty!! Love to meetyou in person at a venue in Colchester anytime. Been on the blues scene since 69 and love playing with song if they have a story to tell? Which you definitely have Poppy!🤔✍️🥂😎

I believe the spitfire was G-BRRA

Excellent video!

Thank you for sharing your fabulous Galapagos experience! I'm enjoying my vicarious voyage & look forward to the next videos.

Fascinating. Wondered what happened to XM655 after it ran off the runway. Is the plan to commence high speed taxiing again?

Film with the HC-X1500? Also gave you seen any of the so called UAP drones ?

The Buccaneer means a lot to me, my father was an avionics designer, we spent time in South Africa when the UK government sold a number to the SAAF. I get goosebumps when I see one.

Why was the take up reel sticking out

Great job 👏

Wow you caught me taking of in my little heli, cheers steve.

Good to see so many younger folk getting involved, great work.

I only recently learned about this aircraft, such an amazing feat of ingenuity and engineering. I'm glad to see one being preserved in such amazing condition.

Can I help you create a logo for you to help me afford a new laptop soon and hopefully one day a HC-X1500 camcorder as well? :-)

Beautiful aircraft thanks to all the dedicated people for looking after it

I love the Vulcan one my favourite aircraft.❤ That said I dont see the point of keeping her working to taxi 20m, what is the point of this!?! Get her flying or hi-speed runs but not what I just saw, disappointing. 🫤

Captain does look like Henning Wehn!

25 years in the mob, doing that sort of stuff as a Sumpy and never heard a safety brief 😂🤣.
