Avro Vulcan

Back on 21 September I enthused like an apron nerd about the efforts to get this fifty year old aeroplane airborne again. On 18 October they achieved this. I may be missing a point here, but like a favourite band or the bagpipes, I can't believe that the feel good factor I get from it may not be shared by everyone else.

  2. Glad I'm not alone. The Planet dies a little more every time it leaves the garage, but hey - at least we're raging at the dying of the light.
