Pontius Nav, Alamo; I’ve still got more than a suspicion that TFR figured in the loss of XM536. In fact the Lincolnshire Echo’s Tribute to the Vulcan (which seems to be correct in most other things) says, under losses, XM536 - Crashed During TFR Trial.

The earliest Vulcan photograph I can find with a TFR pod is XL445, Waddington, some time in 1967, 44 and 50 Squadron’s Standard Presentation. Jeez……I’m turning into an anorak!

PS. You've got to see this.............
