So hard to find the original owners of air show footage. I always end up seeing tons of videos and shorts from people using footage like this. Wish people would stop doing that so you and others could get the recognition they deserve for the work they did.
A bygone era. All designed on a drawing board using slide rules and log tables without CAD 👍 Seeing Vulcans, Victors, Valiants, Lightnings, Buccaneers and Concorde flying was always a privilege.
@@flymachine Was? You make it sound like they don't exist anymore. They may not be in service but as long as there are still working versions around at airshows it still IS a flying work of art.
Bootiful! Just bootiful! Thanks Bob! I really enjoyed seeing the Gnats. They used to fly over our village all the time as they popped up out of the A5 pass. Those were the days...
@@bobsurgranny They had the same designer, Roy Chadwick. And I guess that it's no coincidence that the shape of Concorde's wing has a visible resemblance to Vulcan's.
The Vulcan is hands down the most beautiful bird that ever flew. I had the honour of watching one of her last flights in Canada at the CNE airshow in the 90's.Look out Godzilla Mothra has taken to the sky.
I was a baby when I lived at RAF Finningley (1972ish) when it was a Vulcan base and I remember going to airshows as a young child and being in awe at the majesty of the Vulcan (that and temperary deafness)
Hi Bob , excellent video, you really cracked me up with the world’s largest pizza delivery comment lol. Those glowing rotor tips are pretty shyt hot. I’ve never seen that before. Thank you so much Heidi ❤🤗😁👍
@@penguin44ca Of course that's one of the reasons, silly. Another more important reason is judging the distance to obstacles when landing. The blade tips are sort of out of reach when landing vertically, in any case. I'm guessing you don't have any time in helos.
A Vulcan take off is the most powerful display I ever experienced. Get many of these pizza deliveries every day though, living near Geilenkirchen where these are stationed.
Awesome footage. The Vulcan is a favourite of mine. I lived next to the RAAF base in Laverton Victoria in 1965. A Vulcan (XH480) did a low level flypast, and to a 7yr old boy, it looked like it was about to fly into my front door! Still remember the Vulcan "howl".
🇬🇧 Magnificent!! I often wonder what the pilots of the last two world wars would have thought if they had witnessed some of these amazing aircraft flying through the skies with them. Ive seen a few videos of old 2nd world war pilots who swore they had seen phantom jets like the aircraft of today, when they had been on flying missions. The whole squadron on return all said they had seen these fantastic screaming jets overhead which then faded out. It wouldn't surprise me, theres something about superspeeds & time tunnels that exist temporarily. Thanks for the vid! Amazing feats of engineering & flight! Peace 🇬🇧🙋
The V-22 with the "weird" glowing blade-tips, that's actually quite common on rotor-wings... Low-light ground safety-feature, and also for formation-flying in the dark: blade-tip lights.
From 1976-80 I was stationed at Barksdale AFB ,La and we hosted the International Bombing Competition. I always loved when the Brits would arrive with the Vulcan and Victors. The Vulcan always put on an impressive performance. That big bird is surprisingly agile for the size it is. It’s one of the planes I loved watching at the annual air show. A shame they are all gone.
An old RAF Officer told me a fantastic story from one of those competitions when we sent the Vulcan across the pond. I can't recall if it was him, or he overheard it but apparently two very high up "Top Brass" were monitoring the competition and the American Officer was heard to say "those Brits have got themselves a sports bomber and we're flying a bomb truck" referring to the B-52's. I always found that amusing. Horses for courses I say. If you want a few bombs putting somewhere very accurately and very quickly. Sports Bomber. You want to remove a location from the map. Bomb Truck. 🇬🇧 🤝🇺🇸 Long live the special relationship.
As a kid I remember going to visit my Gran and on the way past Scampton I saw Severn or Eight Vulcans take off one after the other . It was the end of the fifties or very early sixties.
Great stuff, lovely video. Gotta love the SAAB Draken and the Rotor blades on the Osprey in the dark were well groovy. Here's a fun fact, the pilot of the Vulcan is Tommy 'gingernob' Becklethwaite and apart from being quite drunk he only has 3 working fingers, what a gift to the nation he is.
That little Italian boxcar of a C-27 lost a LOT of altitude doing that roll. Not really a thing to try for fun... That pilot understood that and went UP before trying it, but a newbie might not... Reminds me of the story of a Tutor student-pilot in the RCAF in the 80s (or maybe 70s). He went to his dad's farm, close by Moose Jaw, Sask. and tried flying inverted. He pulled up on the stick to go up, but it meant DOWN in his reverse attitude. plowed straight in, right in front of Daddy... Sad day for that family.
I always had a big soft spot for the Victor bomber when it was sitting on the apron at Prestwick Scotland it looked like it was doing mach 1 very beautiful aircraft❤❤
Q: What is louder than a Harrier hovering? A: Six Harriers hovering. Q: What is louder than six Harriers hovering? A: Nothing is louder than six Harriers hovering.
@@ssnerd583 true - but have to move and they’ll eventually go past and then they’re quiet. A Harrier can sit in front of you and blow your ears off…for a loooooonng time.
If you look at the underside of the ECM pod at the tail you will notice a slightly fuzzy small lump. An external switch is mounted here, in the cockpit it's indicator light will be green, if it turns amber/yellow the the tail is about to touch the ground, if it turns red, then the operating arm of that switch is likely to be embedded in the fuselage of the aircraft (Naughty Skipper!) - I only ever saw that happen once in our Squadron (101 Squadron RAF Waddington)
It wasn’t unusual to see the paint missing from the head of the arm, maybe the painters & dopers thought it wasn’t worthwhile covering it (at least not with Joe L’Estrange in the left seat!). All the best. Steve R (ex-Flight Line Maniac IX Sqn)
I haven’t had that pleasure but I was recently at an air show in Dover, DE and an F-35 turned and showed its business end on afterburner. Loudest sound I have ever heard.
Remember when there was more than one aerobatic team in the RAF.. Black Arrows, Black Knights, Blue Diamons, Yellowjacks, Linton Gin, Firebirds.. Man, remember when we had an air force with enough aircraft to actually do that!! lol
Not very thrilling, but watching the 747 roll out of a turn onto the centreline and then land with such a beautiful wire-catching flare makes me think the pilot spent too much time landing on carriers before they put him in charge of the C&C bus.
Because we lived directly in the flight path of the main runway at March AFB in Southern California i would complain as a child of the noise, but my Father always chuckled & explained "That's the sound of freedom my son, the noise is the price we pay" 😉 ✈️ 🇺🇸 🦅
Rugby bloke flew it too hard haha Wish I caught that pass on camera, he stooped down out of the cloud base gaining momentum at full power before going over head with a massive great growl at 100ft, next thing you know it's clacking on landing
No one who knows what they are talking about would say "C-47 Dakota"! There is no such thing! American C-47s are called "Skytrains" and Brit/UK versions are "Dakota C1 (2,3,4 etc)". Basic goofs like that, and being too lazy to take ten minutes to edit out bad footage (out of focus, subject blocked, etc.) are why I hit "Dislike" and don't sub.

Nice! Those harriers flying off into the purple sunset was a fine moment and great to see them in the wild after so many years
loved the vulcan , iconic
impressed by the c27 aeleron role

The Avro Vulcan is a flying work of art.
Certainly is a beautiful beast

I was at Scampton when they were there. 6 Vulcans scrambling is something I will never forget.
Bootiful! Just bootiful! Thanks Bob! I really enjoyed seeing the Gnats. They used to fly over our village all the time as they popped up out of the A5 pass. Those were the days...
Welcome. The Gnats 😍 Wish I'd seen Ray Hanna fly in them
Amazing that the Vulcan first flew 72 years ago! It still has a certain futuristic look.
Quite remarkable to think how ahead of its time it was. Even crazier is there was only 10 years between the Lancaster and Vulcan
@@bobsurgranny They had the same designer, Roy Chadwick.
And I guess that it's no coincidence that the shape of Concorde's wing has a visible resemblance to Vulcan's.
Privileged to have seen Concordes and Vulcans fly. Nothing today creates as much excitement and awe.
I saw the Vulcan testing a Pegasus Concorde engine and some time later the Concorde prototype flew over our scool sportsfield.
Once happened to see a four ship Vulcan scramble.
Vividly remember the trembling of my chest.
Must have been 12, sometime in the early 60s.
Grow up.
@@arcanondrum6543 And this means?
@@arcanondrum6543 ?
The SAAB Draken is just a work of art.
Yes, the Vulcan is! Miss seeing it at Glenview NAS. For the Chicago air/water show. 😢
Crazy driving through there now. You would never even know it existed
The Vulcan is hands down the most beautiful bird that ever flew. I had the honour of watching one of her last flights in Canada at the CNE airshow in the 90's.Look out Godzilla Mothra has taken to the sky.
No it isnt
Great selection.
👍
The look and sound of the Vulcan is unsurpassed. Nearly 70 years old and still perfect 🇬🇧
Amazing how far ahead of its time it was
Used to live a few miles from a RAF base where Vulcans were stationed, often saw them overhead. Beautiful, but unbelievably loud!
I was a baby when I lived at RAF Finningley (1972ish) when it was a Vulcan base and I remember going to airshows as a young child and being in awe at the majesty of the Vulcan (that and temperary deafness)
Unless you have been there to see and hear one you simply can’t comprehend how loud they are
The Sound of the V22 Engines! So Amazing! 😎
Great sound that thudding
Hi Bob , excellent video, you really cracked me up with the world’s largest pizza delivery comment lol. Those glowing rotor tips are pretty shyt hot. I’ve never seen that before. Thank you so much Heidi ❤🤗😁👍
Thanks yeah those Osprey formation lights are mega to see in the night sky and if you were unaware of the V-22 you'd swear it was aliens 😉
Wow, some VERY GREAT AMERICAN AIRCRAFTS! John P.
What an amazing aircraft the Draken is. Absolutely stunning
So futuristic looking for the 50s as well.
Glad you enjoyed watching along
That Vulcan is sure a 'class act'!
The V-22's have rotor tip lights for landing at night in tight areas.
Incorrect. They are there so the people who are. On the ground in the dark can see where the tips of the blades are for safety
@@penguin44ca Of course that's one of the reasons, silly. Another more important reason is judging the distance to obstacles when landing. The blade tips are sort of out of reach when landing vertically, in any case. I'm guessing you don't have any time in helos.
Very cool stuff. Draken,Vulcan, & Tornado. Still capable in their field.
Just have to love a Harrier! Also Vulcan to the Sky!
Saw a Vulcan during an airshow at Amberley Qld Australia. When she lifted off and went close to vertical, the earth shook.
A Vulcan take off is the most powerful display I ever experienced.
Get many of these pizza deliveries every day though, living near Geilenkirchen where these are stationed.
XH558…What an absolute beauty. I’ve had a special affection for that bird since I was a kid ‘way back in the 60s. 💖
Nothing beats seeing and hearing it live. I was there! That howl! Wow. Shame they don't do air shows there anymore. Used to be a good venue.
@@bertiesworld I’d love to see her in person!

The Vulcan is the only bomber that has done a full barrel roll which was done at Farnborough in 1955 by AVROs Chief test pilot Roly Falk.

Romour has it, that the SAAB Viggen can be refuled and rearmed in 15min by 3 "farm hands" on a remore forrest road.
The V22 may have its troubles but you CANT say that its not AMAZING for a first-gen tiltrotor aircraft. I fucking LOVE the V22

When the E4 Mafia has an aircraft and chem lights..
i would love just once to get a ride in a vulcan
16:12 chap is waiting for the scream, sadly it's SOLEX, the modified RAF's Sentry with new engines...
Wasn't Vulcan 558 the last one to be flying? I thought it was 'retired' a year or two ago? Anybody know for sure?
Its been retired since 2015
The Osprey rotor lights are called Slime lights.
Not heard that term so thanks for that. I just call them formation lights
Vulcan; Now that’s what a nuclear should look like.

Harrier footage Yuma?
Many flying triangles were reported in Europe in the 80s and 70s.
What near miss on the Blue Angels?
That was a normal formation take off.
Check out the birds, they got caught in the wash
Dude manuals half the length of a runway😂
That Osprey, is a really bad idea 🤨
It's a great idea but far from perfect
Roly Falk rolled a Vulcan.
Absolutely! in his pin striped whistles 😉💪
