Bloody love this aircraft.  Howls like the Horns of Jericho and turns your insides to mush.  Louder than a loud thing on 11.  Videos do not do it justice.

Awesome Vulcan Bomber Low Fly-By

Shoosh, Funky, there are people in this country scared of loud noises and guns.

Saw them fly into/out of the Barksdale afb airshow many times as a kid....    they donated one to the 8th AF museum when the RAF retired them..... I got to go into that one as a teenager (and not a very big teenager).... it was cramped as hell.......  very cool aircraft.

Always looked forward to seeing the Vulcan at the air show.  Video doesn't capture how impressive it is in the air.

I was pleasantly surprised to see one at the Carswell AFB open house just after the Falklands. Was doing wing-overs.

I needed new shorts.

Loudest now?  Maybe.  Loudest ever?  Probably not.

That first video was fantastic!  It reminds me of the first time I heard a B-1 bomber doing something similar.  Both are awesome bombers!

Yeah, saw something about that on some Discovery channel thing years ago.  Wished I'd paid more attention as I was only really able to catch the last few minutes about it.

Meant to look it up but never did.

Thanks for the reminder.
