Hi All,

Was at RAF Waddington to see a Practise Display by the Vulcan on it's 1sr Flight of 2015 which is it's last year of Displays, as it was it's First Flight I was surprised how low they were flying.

Here it is on approach

Good work. We see the Vulcan several times a year here, only 8 miles from Waddington, and as one of the pilots lives nearby I suspect that's why. Two years ago it flew over our Village on the occasion of our fete, so thrilling and even more than the Spitfire and Hurricane that followed later.

Great images, surprised we didn't see it at carlton on trent. Often see it heading to Doncaster following river trent past the back of our house!

Cracking set of images. It flew over where I live as a few local people managed to get some shots
