Can't wait to see the full video of 2009 display season. Couldn't get to any display to see her in her element this year. Hope to next year, but once again, severe dosh needed! Please support her by going to the website and donating whatever you can afford. Also thanks to Planes TV for supporting XH558.

The video freezers either at the start or after 2/3 minutes on my machine, it continues in sound only. Any suggestions please?

Very well put together, brought a tear to the eye ducts again. Love to see this craft and the Harrier as part of the BBMF in tribute for those who gave their lives in the Falklands in 1982, unfortunately No 10 have a different view on this. Well done.

Thanks Gerry - I'm glad you enjoyed it.

The guys down at Bournemouth mentioned you'd come and said hello - sorry I wasn't around to say hi. Unfortunately by that stage of the season I'm buried in edit work - I'm lucky if I get to see any flying action!

Hi Anonymous, thanks for your message, I understand your frustration.

Its worth checking the Vulcan's official site for clarification on the exact reasons for the aircraft's non-appearance at the show.

I have never been able to make your player work on my Mac. This player works well, and in Safari the frame rate was - first rate! Firefox looks choppy, even with the same player plugin.

I'm a proud member of the Vulcan to the Sky Club and I have to say it's been a monumental achievement by the team to return this wonderful aircraft to the skies again for the nation. The 2008 season was successful, but 2009 really was something 'other' and I think this video does do it justice. The aircraft literally stops people in their tracks - there is not really anything else flying today that can develop a reaction quite like that. The Vulcan is a great British engineering achievement, it is historically significant in many ways and it's an astonishing sight in the sky. So here's hoping we can generate some more funding to keep going. After all the amazing sights and sounds of this season, we cannot fail!

Note to Vulcan to the Sky Trust...........

Please put a note in your diary to sort out the paperwork a couple of weeks BEFORE Waddington next year... The HD video won't look very good if it's just sat on the tarmac like this year...
I've been two years now and not seen it fly...
