Vulcan Low IAS

John Farley

Remember Ossie Hawkins doing very low IAS testing in a Vulcan B1 fitted with a chute?

Did you ever hear the results of any such tests?

I recall he pitched up, used the chute and then couldn't jettison the thing.

It ceased being a flying machine and he didn't bang out.
