Phil May Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 That was my first flight with it after 'fettling' with the c of g, wind was at max 15 mph but it was one of those days where lift was variable... hence the sudden arrival I took it out a few days later where it was blowing 25 mph plus and lift was awesome... oh boy what a difference that made.

Mark Kettle 1 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 I'm sitting in the Vulcan cockpit at present at the Midlands air museum Coventry, very interesting. The last time i was in a Vulcan was 1974 when one was being scrapped at RAF Newton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
