Aren't you going on Sunday? Even so, I'd still miss you as I am there on Saturday. Can't wait to look at the Christmas shop in Lechlade.

He was impressed with whole the whole look of it - I said it was a good job he knew where his wheels were!!!!

will the camera stay there or was it a one off?

[Bovril]

got ideas for other views

Cracking vid
Is it normal for the brakes to smoke like that at the end ?
Cant wait for the other views on the next run

That's a lot of Vulcan to slow down without a 'chute on a very short runway. We checked the brakes as soon as she was parked up, and by then they were surprisingly cool.

Brilliant video from an entirely new perspective

Dumb question of the month......
Is the nose wheel steering attached to the rudder - or is it by some sort of in cockpit wheel - and does it then get locked as un-steerable before a take off run??

[Bovril]

there is a button on the control column, while it is held in rudder and wheels move together, when its released nose wheel up ,the wheels centre ready to retract... soon be put right

Yes that main undercarriage suspension definitely unloads

Thanks that explains it nicely

Contradictory remark there Nick - if I had been sat in the nav radar seat the STBD wheels would never have got off the ground!!!!
