I just had to share this!
the only 2 airworthy Lancasters alongside the only airworthy vulcan, you will NEVER see these 3 next to each other again and if you do it would be incredible cos 1 lancaster lives in the UK, the other lives in Canada and the vulcan is in the UK under threat as of the end of 2015 from being grounded as its under a charity which as we all know struggles to keep airworthy planes flying.....
I hope you all enjoy these pics as much as I do Smile

I saw the Vulcan fly during the 50th celebration of the US Navy aviation at Pensacola, Fla. in the early 60's while serving a tour there. The star of the airshow was a Navy
F8F Bearcat in a simulated dog fight with a Navy F9 jet.  Considering the fire power of the F9 jet with air-to-air missiles , the F8F Bearcat still flew circles around the jet.

I think that its amazing the work put in to keep these birds in the sky.....
I always donate as much as I can to these guys cos what they do is proper graft and we shouldnt let time ground our birds!
when these babys take off its a site to behold and I have witnessed it many time now with many more to come I hope!
its so good to share and enjoys these with you guys, my kids love them too (apart from my 6 year old and the vulcan, he says its too loud)
