the utter claptrap issued about the Vulcan factor
Perhaps you weren't at Farnborough last year. Or at several other shows. Including Cosford this year, where the show exceeded last year's "capacity" crowd of 54,000 by 4,000. Because of that they closed the gates at 1230, and had to turn people round on the motorway, and refund a lot of prepaid tickets. OK the wx was good, but it's been good before. That was the Vulcan effect. I know - I was there.

the utter claptrap issued about .... their success of delivering a flying Vulcan.
So what have they delivered, if not a flying Vulcan? That's exactly what they have delivered, despite the efforts of all the naysayers and doom mongers.
