Travel time to vulcan Videos

And because even American radar had difficulty in spotting them! A Vulcan arrived at Plattsburgh AFB without being tracked on radar until it would have passed the IP of its bomb run; a bit embarrassing for the USAF!

+David Jenkins from Long time ago in the west,

I was working at RIAT this year so got to see her there

Saw her display twice this year, so can't complain, both times over water so she wasn't too restricted. (Rhyl & Southport).

+Reece Keenan No longer unfortunately

+Reece Keenan I saw her flying today :)

+Carol RowleyWell it wasn't 'CATOBAR' as such or just the costs (or rather the unknown costs) but also the unknown delivery dates of the EMALS systems and if they would work. Remember the initial decision was taken in 2007 and reviewed in 2010 (a review that cost many £millions) and to make sure we had two carriers built they stayed with the ramp / F35B option. Remember the 'B' is just as capable as the 'C' and far more flexible operationally especially given our need to replace the Harriers for the RAF and deliver large fixed wing capability to the FAA. We do not have the luxury of having 100 F18s parked on two carriers while the USMC deploys 100 F35Bs in some war. We have the ability to do both carrier and landbased CAS operations with one airframe. Its why we developed the Harrier in the first place in the '60s.You then make the leap of statement to say it can't be delivered in a refit. We are building two 'electric boats' which is fundamental for EMALS, there is 'passive engineering' already built in in the foredeck and the deck is already big enough for an angled flight deck. And remember in 25 years time who knows what aircraft we will be flying anyway. If we need EMALS (or whatever the latest version is then) it will be a proven and lower cost capability.And lastly who says the Navy doesn't want the F35B? Any sources for that?

+1chish From what i remember the Royal Navy is getting the stovl version because of the cost of installing CATOBAR on a ship that is being built so there is no chance of it being installed at a later date.Also the Royal Navy don't want it they want they want the non stovl version.

+john tanth "no British fighter or bomber aircraft are now being built"Except for the Tyhoon and F-36 you mean?

+john tanthInteresting summary my friend but as an ex RAF crab I can't agree.So who says the F35 is too slow and can't manoeuvre? Any proof or just an opinion?The F35 is far more than just an American aircraft. We build between 25% and 40% of EVERY F35 here in the UK and put up £2.3 Billion in development money. It was a British pilot flew the first X35 STOVL flight and we Brits had a say in which aircraft was chosen in the trials.You have NO idea what an F35B will cost in 2017 when they are delivered so don't be daft. And as someone who fought a war alongside the Salts in the South Atlantic precisely WHAT is wrong with the FAA and RAF using the same STOVL aircraft? Oh wait ... Didn't they share the Harrier (and yes I do know the spec of a SHAR)?You are right the QEs won't have CATOBAR. So what? The USMC have the same F35Bs we will have and are trialling now and why should we pay out £ Billions on untried new technology EMALS and AAG when the Yanks can't even make it work? The Russians and others launch very effective aircraft from ski ramps. See its yet another carrier development we gave the world! And if we need CATOBAR in 25 years time we have the ships already passively engineered for it ....And when were you privy to the price lists of Rolls Royce parts for the F35B? And you seem to have overlooked the fact that we as a nation of 65 Million people aren't big enough to buy the hundreds of aircraft neeeded to make the development costs pay. So we do deals with the French (Jaguar), Germans and Italians (Tonka) and Spanish as well for the Typhoon. all brilliant aircraft and second to none but affordable. We did the same with the F35 and in fact we will earn more as a Nation from the assembly and supply of equipment to Lockheed and Air Forces after production than we will spend on purchasing. And yes I do have a fair idea of costs mate ....

+john tanth Also the Vulcan bomber and other Vbombers are British through and through but the F35B is American They cost over $100 millon each and will be somehow shared between the RAF and Royal navy..a totally useless idea devised by the M o D. The new carriers will also not have a catapult or arrestor gear so incompatable with most of our allies jetsthe maintenance costs are much greater than more normal aircraft and require over priced specialist spare parts Typical of its lack of patriotism the MoD and lackey [politicians, no British fighter or bomber aircraft are now being built they are doing to our excellant Tornado and Typhoon what they did to the SR71 in the 1970 s..destroying.

+1chish Short wave radars are being rapidly developed by the Russians which will be able to find the F35B Since it cant manouever and is too slow its likely to be shot down

+Kabul81 But 617 is being stood up with the new F35B as the first Squadron with this aircraft.

No wonder there are no dislikes on this video. Those jets were both stunning and they both had Olympus engines and delta wings. It don't get more stunning than that.

I've always thought of the Vulcan as a sort of four wheel drive, off road Concorde.

2 brothers playing with each other, but they died alone... :(

8 Olympus engines! Doesn't get much better than this!

The environmentalists must of had a heart attack.

That brings a tear to the eye. Amazing...

Concorde and Vulcan, Best friends!

the both have Olympus engines

Beautiful 

Ok, thought it might have todo with the seats in the back. My wife will turn seat heater on in florida summer to eat ice cream. 

Michael, I will answer your question with a question. Are you married? See my wife likes to be warm, and that just about sums it up. For shorter trips, I don't mind. For longer trips, I run it around 21C as it helps me stay awake. And now, I've gotten used to it.

sabinmaior, thanks for watching. The car is awesome.

Thank you sabinmaior and thanks for watching.

+FullGalvanized Thanks for watching. And Vulcan even has a candy store, and a nice golf course.

+michael subasic Have you watched A Tesla in Iceland ? See their page. Really nice videos especially the one with the thumbnail of the waterfall. Iceland like Alberta lacks SUPERCHARGERS. Though at least you can SUPERCHARGER trip now from Calgary to Vancouver. ICELAND has none and they have to pay a premium for CHADEMO adapters. 

Great. It will give you peace of mind and reduce all the hassle.

I may just do that. I'm in talks with my brother in law who is going to be finishing his garage. I.e. Already put my request in. I'll pay for the unit and electrical installation.

Tulipanej, yes that's a fossil car. You especially notice all the tailpipe exhaust in this cold weather. Hundreds and hundreds of little fossil factories driving.
