Real Slim Shady,

All in place, my friend.

Do you still seriously think that this would be an oversight, or that the CAA has not been working hand in hand with the Vulcan Operating Company for the last few years???

The crew have been in place for many years now, and more than meet the CAA requirements. As an example Martin Withers, he of Black Buck 1 fame, had to go and privately pass his PPL, in order to be eligible to fly the Vulcan. This is despite the fact that he is a current 767 pilot for Zoom Airlines, notwithstanding his RAF track record.

modelman,

No, it was not the Vulcan, but may have been one of the many other aircraft currently at Bruntingthorpe.
