Living at Waddington we were fortunate to have the Vulcan overfly the house on the way to an airshow at the weekend. Daughter who is in the RAF at Waddington tells me that it is no longer a matter of money to keep it in the air it's just running out of hours. I remember when they were constantly in the air over Lincoln, quite a sight but we took it for granted in those days.

I used to see the Olympus engine test bed Vulcan flying over Keynsham quite regularly.
