My best mate in the RAF when a Captain on Vulcan at Waddo managed to wipe out 16 of the 18 tyres on landing. Got a bit tense and landed with the toe brakes applied. Axminster shuffle followed I believe. I do hope he doesn't read PPRune.

Mind you his previous Captain who was the OC of 44 turned all the PFC's off whilst aerodynamic braking after landing and stuffed the nose leg up a bit (actually a lot!).
