From where I am (and a 250kb sat internet link), the "Vulcan Cameras" had a pathetic bandwidth capability (including the one on the sponsor's site!-what an advert for them)

Sky (web-site) showed (from what I saw of it -I was switching back to the Vulcan site and froze Sky to give Vulcan the opportunity to give me bandwidth - which it didn't!) some 30 seconds of the take-off,and that was it!

Okay, Ms Bhutto may challenge the leadership of the country in the future, but we are also interested in our country's history! Shame on Sky for giving so little coverage to the technology and skills of Britain!

I guess I'll just have to wait until my vacation time coincides with the Vulcan performing a take-off and landing at the RAFA Air Show at Shoreham
