I agree with Dr I, it has to be both...!

However, I don't agree with the comments on 'C' being boring and 'V' being spectacular when displayed. We've only seen 'C' in it's passenger role, and display manoeuvres are not a good thing to keep paying pax in the back. On the other hand, when 'V' was in service, it's general flying was much like 'C's is now, exceptionally boring.

Soooooooooooo, what I would like to see is a lightweight 'C' putting on a graceful display at a future airshow, in the same way that 'V' used to put on hooligan demo's before she was grounded.

Pie in the sky...? I suppose so, but I can dream.
