If ever there was a plane that deserved to fly !

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching. Yes - I completely agree!

[@user-kw9cq2kh5m]

The best military plane ever built 👌

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Yes - I agree!

[@jonesie1976ify]

Nothing like teasing the old girl eh! Get yer coat love we're going out, no not really it's back to the hanger for you! Stunning to see and hear and sad to not see it where it belongs

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Yes - it would be good to see them up in the air again but sadly I doubt that it will ever happen.

[@rogerward5111]

In 1960 I was taken by my elder brother to the RAF Gaydon ‘At Home’ air show and three Vulcans did a flight take-off. Even now I can remember the noise and feeling of the ground rumbling like a massive thunder storm - very appropriate for the Vulcan.

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching. I have never seen more than one Vulcan take off and as you say the noise / rumbling is tremendous. I can only imagine what three Vulcans taking off would have been like.

Get em back in service true british show of force

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching!

[@MarkB157]

You could almost believe its still an aircraft in service watching this! Kinda like the B52s - old but keep going

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching - yes if only a Vulcan would fly again!

[@danhollatz5944]

I seen this airplane 3 different times at shows! It make you crap your pants with the Howle it makes! It goes through your soul! What a amazing beautiful airplane!

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching. Yes - they certainly are loud and as you say you can feel it it as well as see / hear it.

Sounds awesome from that angle :)

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks - yes I think you can get closer to the spool up when the high power taxi run is on 05 rather than 23.

The UK should have an Air National Guard just like the USA. V bomber force , Vulcans supported by Victor tankers.

[@TheophilusPWildbeest]

Sorry but that's engine noise not howl.
The howl is resonance which comes out of the intakes at high power, so you have to be standing in front of the aircraft to hear it, and this vid, lovely though it is, doesn't have the howl.

[@deanrogers6028]

Is 558 the one at Wellesbourne?

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching. XM655 is the one at Wellesbourne. XH558 is at Doncaste Sheffield Airport.

[@douglasalexander4348]

That’s not the howl? Fantastic anyway. The howl is when it’s flying and it almost screeches along with the engine noise. What a plane and what a great experience for you.

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching!

[@buffplums]

Great to see more than just 558 doing the taxi runs… be great if they could get all the surviving Vulcans into one place I,amine that ?

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Thanks for watching. Yes - that woud be great. I hear that XH558 will be leaving Doncaster Sheffield Airport in 2023 as the airport is closing.

[@peterdawson8636]

such a pity xl426 and xh558 are not air worthy just think of the howl from the two together it would be awesome such a shame

[@georgesjourneys9007]

Yes - agreed. I remember when Vulcans used to display at the various airshows (including Southend!) but didn't really appreciate them as much as I do now.

[@dryflyman7121]

As far as I’m aware, they are, certainly 558 anyway. I am certain it was whilst it was at Doncaster, but it’s the huge cost of the insurance to fly it that is main obstacle, and lack of funds.

[@georgesjourneys9007]

On a slightly different topic, I believe that 558 will have to move from Doncaster by June of next year as the airport is facing closure.
