just had the pleasure of seeing the last flying Vulcan come over bc about 3.50pm local at no more than 1500ft above ground level, lovely sight and surprisingly quiet.
It was displaying at Cosford airshow yesterday. Was indeed a lovely sight.
:ok:

Probably on it's way to or from the Welshpool show.

About 1600, turned east, having approached from roughly west/south west, over Lyth Hill, just south of Shrewsbury, to run in towards Cosford. About same altitude. So quiet that I didn't realise what was approaching.

yes, heading straight for Welshpool when I saw it, then went to Cosford apparently.
