She did not land and take part in the static display because of worries about her undercarriage, post Farnborough,
Could you expand on this? I heard it was a brake problem post Farnborough but I could have been misinformed.

Display a little less spectacular than I have seen in the past, but that's not a complaint as there are obvious reasons for restraint
Probably linked to my first question. Having been resposible (in the past) for Vulcan u/c and hydraulic system for over 10 years I'm quite surprised about this. The u/c was built like a brick $hithouse.
