Duh...

Guess I should have used a smiley, I was laughing my ass off, he used Mg, magnesium, instead of MG for Morris Garages.

Mike I think we need to address the crane-afflicted non achievers

I think the vacuum is a red herring,

the apparently shredded underwear is however common amongst crane-spotters

Damn, I didn't think any of those (the Vulcan) were airworthy & still flying! If the photos are current & 'on the level', Thanks Rob. They sure bring back a lot of great airshow memories from a time I wasn't this old.

Cheers

Event took place on 15th September 2010.
I think its the last flying Vulcan - but depends on donations and sponsorship to keep it flying.
The noise it makes is just unreal - amazing piece of kit.

They were retired in the mid 80's, I think, except for this one.

I think I heard/saw something about a version, modified for electronic surveillance that was also still flying... maybe in Canada. Can't find a link.
