Re: Vulcan Limit

I flew the PR9 and that too had a major problem losing height after any cabin pressure loss. We sometimes flew in the gear mentioned by Beagle plus the Taylor pressure helmet, a very uncomfortable bit of kit in the Middle East! At extreme altitude the problem really was turning - the outboard wing would get near to MCrit and the inboard wing would get near to stalling and control was marginal to say the least.
