OK Vulcan enthusiasts I quit using this thread in trying to source some detail of the Glenview loss.

I am intrigued as to how the do-gooders will continue the cover up post 2008 which is nigh upon us.

Having been on too many boards of inquiry, some of which were inconclusive, I found there was ALWAYS some lesson/s to be learned.

My own involvement in clearing the Vulcan for RAF service has focussed my attention and concern for all Vulcan misadventures and a pride in the small part I played in its development into one of the most successful designs in its time. I can say the same for the F-111 which almost replaced the Vulcan in the RAF as the F-111K.

I am contributing to the pending publication of a book on Vulcan development which will use with appreciation many contributions to this thread. The intense interest in the thread is a good indication that the book will be a great success.

Keep on posting your fascinating anecdotes which are important historically.
