great pics and clips all :ymapplause:

no video really does the display justice - Kev made sure all of us got to see just how agile a Vulcan is - brilliant display - just what DT should've been allowed to do last year!

good to meet up with some new faces too - everyone was just as ugly as i had imagined :ymdevil:

Have to agree with SM that the display was fantastic. When watching I forgot that she was a bomber and not a fighter. :ymapplause:

A real shame that DT was not given the fatigue indexes he deserved last year. X(

No imagination could have prepared me for the horror of meeting those new faces yesterday. :((

TBH SM, DT originally had to fight to be allowed to display at all last year, the management only wanted straight & level flypasts for the 1st 2 years!!!!

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.

If DT had been given a bit more freedom here's what we would have seen. ;)



Not that I'm complaining as I enjoyed DT's displays last year too. :D

He's 21 and uses a Canon 40D with a Sigma 50-500mmEX lens.

Glad you like them.
