Question

BEagle

Very interested in your comments about Vulcan handling at high A of A. When the lovely bird was flying, the airshow routine seemd to comprise a steep climb, sustained 'till very low airspeed, then a 'wingover', to the right and a dive to recover speed. Given the odd handling at high alpha, that must have been 'interesting', especially for the guys in the back with no bang seats.

Cheers

Just like to add my thanks to John Farley for his superb contribution to this most interesting thread.
