[@vancecalvin4042]

Truely an Incredible Aircraft for its time.. As an American boy living in Woking Surrey , A Vulcan flew over our home.. I was So Scared.. Farnsbourgh was near by. What did I know. ???

Birth of a legend

When he climbs into the cockpit in that brown suit, class.

[@feckenblinken7985]

Mr Roly Falk seems quite a character... rolling the plane on it's first flight whilst dressed in a business suit

[@bruceburns1672]

Absolutely amazing that Britain was once capable of such projects once as a nation .

[@Drrj-sm9wl]

And look at us now...

[@patdbean]

In the 50/60s we spent almost 10% of tax take on defence, now we spend 2% you get what you pay for.

[@kimjonglongdong3158]

We are still capable. Its just...less necessary now than it was then.

[@patdbean]

@@kimjonglongdong3158 and better to be a small part of a big project. Better to make 10% of the F35 and to sell 3,000 of them rather than making all of it and selling 200-300.

[@SM-dt1pr]

You think that a modern jet fighter project is remotely similar in complexity and cost to a V Bomber?

[@allgood6760]

Thanks for this 👍✈️

[@markies5411]

Test pilot in a suit, classic

[@Radio478]

5m11s, I'm not sure what he would be doing there, but that sure looked like Tony LeVier.

[@uttaradit2]

Wtf happened to Great Britain? Short answers please......

[@guycrawshaw]

uttaradit2 Tory party fucked us over

[@Peorhum]

The US killed it starting with the Atlantic charter. Killed in the name of liberty and American corporations/trade...more the corporations/trade then liberty. With the British governments since Churchill going right along with it, making Britain a toadie state of the US, with British PMs having their heads so far up US president's butts the US presidents see double.

[@ronclark9724]

The price for FDR's investment saving the UK from Nazi tyranny. A United Nations freeing colonies from their masters. Simply put, the UK lost their colonial Empire...

[@patdbean]

What happened ? When the Vulcan was designed we spent 10% of our tax take on defence, now we spend 2%

[@keithwatson1384]

America, although a good Allie to have, fucked us and 'put us in our place' just so they could be the only great western super power. America not supporting us in suez was a disgrace, and then they went and did the exact, I mean the exact same thing in panama!

Nice Video

[@ToonandBBfan]

Would a Grandslam bomb fit into the Vulcans bomb bay?

[@borninjordan7448]

+ToonandBBfan Probably.

[@tomwestwood5318]

ToonandBBfan no

[@wolf8900]
