(yes I know it's powered by 301s so that bit more powerful)
Great program

A wonderful insight into the Wellesbourne Vulcan particularly, and the story of the Vulcan in general.
As far as presenters go, you really can't beat Guy Martin.

Union Jack, back on 29 Oct 2007, I advised:
However, he never did send the DVD proof, neither did he respond to further queries - just went deep and silent after he failed to provide the evidence.....
Mind you, after I rang the crew immediately following Flight 1, they wimped out of telling the press about his promise!
Tombstone, being a chap who keeps his promises, has given me an update.
Firstly, he has been off the forum recently as he was on compassionate leave. I'm sure everyone will wish him well.
Now, you will all be interested to learn that the deed has been done and I will have the DVD in a few days' time.
However, a tip-off to Tombstone revealed that the RAF fun-detectors were not very happy about the idea of a 'public' performance, so quite understandably the DVD was shot not in a crewroom, but next to a jet.

VMT for the "update", BEagle!
Sounds like Tombstone would have made a good submariner - "deep and silent" indeed, or was that after the insertion of the rose stem?
