Hi, there, you guys might like to read about Vulcan XL319, in January 1983, flying in to Usworth aerodrome near Washington, Co. Durham (now part of Sunderland and the site of the Nissan car factory).
The Usworth link is:

I still remember the a/c flying in over Boldon, 3 miles North East of the aerodrome. At that time large planes, civilian or military, were rarely seen in the area. The Vulcan looked absolutely huge, from below, and the roar of the engines at full throttle was impressively loud even at that distance, presumably as it re-circled to land after the first approach.
