Brilliant!! Well done all.
Just picked up the thread on my lunch break. What a momentous day for all involved. I'm guilty of not contributing ££ when it REALLY mattered (like up to now) but am getting the chequebook out now and steeling myself for the "you gave money to WHAT" moment when the missus sees the bank statement.
First saw the Vulcan about 1967 at an airshow in my native Hamilton, Ontario, Canada with my Granddad. It's looming presence in the sky and the smokey, Promethian roar of the engines caused one seven-year-old to burst into tears and hide behind said Granddad. Since then saw it many, many times at airshows and just bathed in the awesome (this time an appropriate use of the word) sound and visual presence Vulcan offered.
God speed to the cast and crew of TVOC - donation imminent; domestic likely!!!
