Went to RAF Fairford for the airshow this weekend - the star of the show was undoubtedly the Vulcan in its last flying season...not a dry eye in the house :-[
Go to youtube - RIAT 2015 Avro Vulcan XH558 HOWLs!! for some great footage of her by Elwyn R. I don't know how he kept the camera still
Saw a Vulcan at an airshow at Teesside many years ago. It appeared VERY low and slow over some trees near to where we were standing like something out of Close Encounters. Amazing sight.
@Grant. Damn, Cletus an' Enos sure do go on them thar thangs!
Full marks to the blokes for highlighting the possible risks.
Brickbats for letting every fuckwit with a computer know that it's possible.
Fuckwit award for demonstrating it on a crowded highway.
(only my opinion) :
Well they did tell Jeep about it and let them do a kludge to the software before they made it public. Trouble is there's a lot of Jeeps getting around without the fix.
I am amazed how calm he stays during this event and especially after it. I think I would have shouted a lot and would have pulled the truck driver out to knock him down... How could he oversee the biker?!?
but maybe the biker was just so happy he survived it...
