This could rapidly turn into 'Challenge Mackrick' What's the most obscure and inaccessible part of 558 that can be photographed WITHOUT resorting to non-NDT to obtain it.
Go to it Forumeers................................

Would that be DT then?

Iggie, you forgot Vulcans have a 'cat flap' in the bomb bay.

Yellow suits tend to come out with black knees, elbows and shoulders. That is why I where black overalls - they look the same before and after

And, of course, it is why all sootys wear black hats.

Well as a lecky you are welcome to carry on getting dirty.
Having said that it wouldn't be the first time and won't be the last time I have been in a jet pipe sorting out thermocouple shrouds and helping the sooties out.

So I was.......still, an interesting shot, thanks for that Mackrick.

Perhaps I should have asked for the same, but with a PANNIER in place........What say you Danforth?

Thank you Mackrick.
Now how's about a shot of the world famous 'Red Slab' .........................(NO archive stuff either)

Alas, I believe there's ONLY ONE Vulcan Pannier
left, and it's rotting-away somewhere in the woods
of Bruntingthorpe! :((

I weep to think of all the "Comfort Items" that
have been carried in that Noble Bin to Far-Flung
Akrotiri, Sub-Artic Goose Bay and many another
exotic overseas assignment.

Maybe, just maybe, someone with some
sense will haul it out of the wilderness and
preserve it to inspire future generations of
whiskey drinkers!

At least I HOPE so........

Danf.

I know who you are ...

That's a cheat, Mackrick. How about one the way I have to look at them - right up the jetpipe

Haven't you got one to play with on the ground too now???
