Bloody wonderful to see 558 back where it belongs - I was at Scampton in the RAF 1972 and the sight and sound of these Vulcans will stay with me forever - join VTTS !!! and keep it flying :-)
A sight that will now grace our skys once more. Today is a historic day as we see XH558 back in the air after 14 years. Cant wait for the airshow season!
The music is 'The Theme from Harry's Game' by Clannad...does seem like an odd choice to accompany the Vulcan! Loved the climb @ 5.00! Thanks for posting this!
I'd forgotten they played Clannad during the display, always made me and my brother laugh, you'd hear a snippets of music then it'd be drowned out by 4 Olympuses. Love the sound of the engines during the turn. Can't wait to see her fly again.
It was either 1990 (the TVS Battle of Britain 50th Airshow) or 1992 RIAT as Fairford was unavailable at the time. I was an apprentice at Boscombe Down 1989 to 93. Too right on the music too "Harry's Game", it was always used as I remember it at Middle Wallop in 1982, the music was playing as the crowd could see the aircraft coming from miles out, made the hair on your neck stand on end.
Try reducing the frames. The little square box under the film. Its better. Back in the early 90's the Cam Cordeers of that day had auto focus which was a pain. Soon afterwards I used manual, it was a lot better!

The Vulcan is verry manoeuvrable for a big fighter like this and espacially for it's time. Keep this jet in the air
for such a huge aircraft, she climbs and banks like nothing I have ever seen.
The music was a perfect fit for its last flight/year and I think they should use it again for the 1st return flight
It's actually a big bomber ;-)
It could out turn most fighters in its day thanks to its huge delta wings and ridiculously powerful engines.
bloody good show at BD `91.
also damn hot.. 40c or something like that

I agree, ridiculous choice of music! Just let the Vulcan do her display to the most appropriate soundtrack - that of 4 Olympuses.
