Watching it now. Bloody good. How beautiful and graceful and agile the Vulcan looks, compared to that lard-ass bit of American junk, they could not take off in a straight!

Indeed, they were beautiful aircraft. :y

I will never forgive Wilson's Labour Government for scrapping TSR2. It was so advanced that I believe it would have set Britain up as a world leader in aircraft manufacture for decades. Of course, we shall never know what might have been, but it was a golden opportunity lost.  >:( >:( :(

We would still have found a way to screw it up, we had that chance with DeHaviland for commercial jets.  I feel the subs were the best solution, they have lasted well, still key today.
