The Victor may have had a larger bomb load than all of Avro's Bombers, but Avro had the last laugh when they converted the Victors to Tankers.

Which was better, the Victor or the Vulcan. Could the Lucky Pilots who flew both, pass on their thoughts as to how the two aircraft performed and which they preferred.

My thoughts as groundcrew: The Vulcan was my favourite (Well I only worked on the Victor for 6 Hours), but there was something in the way the Victor just sat there looking menacing and yet so graceful at the same time.
