"If I remember correctly, the commentator mentioned that the Vulcan display would include one 120 degree wing over, but I don't know if anyone had a protractor handy to check what we saw on Saturday."


I was at the Coffee Cub at Doncaster on July 23rd and towards the end they started moving jacks into position under her. One of the team told me they were concerned because of the hard time she had been given at RIAT (over 135 degrees was mentioned earlier by another team member) and they were going to do some extra NDT checks. The jacks were to ensure the wings were correctly loaded during this process.
