** New Facility **
Using Amazon tools I have built a bookshop for books and DVDs relating to Vulcans and V-bombers. Take a look. All products and transactions are via Amazon, not me, so don’t worry about security etc.

Site updated; 24th March, 2009.
More books and DVDs have been added to the bookshop.

Site changes
Great news on 558; they now have the target money in pledges and donations, so she should be flying on the 2009 display circuit. Let us hope that all those who have pledged money are able to deliver. It would be dreadful to fall now.
Let’s look forward to a godd display season.

Does the world really need another Vulcan site? I wanted to try to put together a site which gave some level of detail of what went into operating the aircraft, particularly from the point of view of the Navigator Radar, my old seat. I had a short spell on 44 Sqn in 1970 then a tour each on 27 & 101 Squadrons. My last flight was in ‘74 and memory might not be as good as it should be, so I look forward to criticism and suggestions from ex Air Crew as well as the stalwarts on the ground who kept them flying.

Recent publications.
Craig Bulman has been in contact with me on a number of topics, and has kindly sent me a copy of his book. Craig is an ardent fan of the Vulcan and his book is well worth reading.

This new book on the history of 44 Squadron can be bought at a discount price through the 44 Sqn Association [Henry Horscroft]; I believe they have an association site on the web.

My other sites

Some of the photos on the site are my own, some have come from other sites and some were in a pack I bought in 1994 from Chris Knox. Where I have used photos other than my own I have tried to acknowledge the source. The site is not revenue earning, but if anyone objects to my use of any picture of theirs please contact me and I will remove it.
