The Vulcan's at Leeming in '79 were on a normal practice dispersal, were they not?

The Aircrew and Groundcrew practising removing the spiders and associated detritus from the dispersal caravans by the Crash Gate to Lawson's Cafe.

From my point of view, as the Runway Caravan Controller, the only excitement was The Scramble.

As the aircraft applied power, the ground shook, the Runway Caravan shook, I shook, my stomach shook. My breakfast was deposited on the grass adjacent to the Caravan, surprisingly the regurgitated best efforts of the Airmen's Mess shook..

Awesome.
