HOWL OF VULCAN XH558 ABORTS LANDING, antonov, raf, an225, lancaster, spitfire, Typhoon, Ukraine,

The most awesome, beautiful way of turning fuel into noise ever invented.

Iconic plane of our time, must have been amazing to be there and see it. Last saw one in flight at an air-show a number of years ago now. Thanks for uploading!

Had the joy of watching a Vulcan at Biggin Hill one year, from a farm nearby. She did a series of fly by's, then a touch and go, and on the second touch and go, the throttles went to the stops, and she went into a full throttle climb. Two circuits round the airfield and she was above cloud ceiling. The roar was absolutely incredible. An iconic aircraft.

I miss seeing XH558 in the skies :'( Always sounds like the sky is being torn apart when she climbs away from you under power :D

I could just sit here and watch the Vulcan on repeat! oh! wait I think I just did!!! what a plane? what a beautiful machine! thanks for the vid! lasted 14 mins? reckon I've spent an hour! cheers.

I love the Vulcan, it's like something out of Thunderbirds. When I was a kid they flew over my home on a couple of occasions in procession and I can remember the earth shaking.

Beautiful, saw one at Bournmouth air display a few years back, just before the air frame miles expired, very sad that we wont see her again

That HOWL of the 4 Olympus 300 engines still gives me the goose-bumps down my spine. I was stationed at RAF Waddington after my training at RAF Halton. I serviced them for 2.5 years. Fond memories of cycling back to work in 1969 after lunch and watching in wonderment as to how the Vulcan took off then did a steep bank and still stayed in the sky....... I fell off my bike!

Fond memories - As a young boy and long before anyone dreamed of Donny having an airport, I regularly watched Vulcans here, when this location was RAF Finningley

One of these flew over Orlando when I was a kid in the early 1960s. It looked amazing.

Saw a Vulcan at Woodford air show years ago, it's climbing ability was unbelievable, it came over the runway low and climbed vertically until it disappeared into the clouds. What a wonderful aircraft it's a pity it's not in use today but things move on as they do but I'll never forget that day.

A stunningly beautiful work of art.

As a young army recruit on a basic training exercise (1978) out in some woods somewhere around Wokingham. I was lucky to experience a whole squadron flying low and in formation come directly over head. It shook the leaves off the trees .. awesome. Prior to that I had never heard of a Vulcan :)

Well-remembered iconic Vulcan displays at RAF Finningley in the mid-late 70s. Vulcan would drift in along the runway and then open the taps full as it climbed nearly vertically to start the display. You didn't just hear it, you FELT the wall of sound. It would test your dentistry! Absolutely awe-inspiring...

Got to see a Vulcan during an air show at SAC Headquarters/ Offutt AFB in Belleview Nebraska in the 1970s. It was a crowd favorite. The thing that impressed me was the wide range of speed from as slow as a piper cub to 650 mph. The one at the air show made a low speed, low level pass then came back over a little later at close to 600 mph. Where I currently live, we have the B2 stealth bombers fly over three or four times a week and they are equally impressive for different reasons. They can come in extremely quiet, then nose up, go full throttle and rattle every window in town. Two or three times every summer I play golf on the course at that base.

We used to go everytime XH558 was flying from Donny until it was permanetley grounded ...remember a few years ago when the landing gear got stuck and they had to swiftly return from Scotland and circle the airfield to burn fuel off ...we met Martin Withers and George Johnny Johnson at a avro evening event in the hangar..great memories

I was 13 years old at the opening of Wellington Airport when the Vulcan wiped out it's port undercarriage. As the captain took it to emergency power, even at that age, I realized how crucial it was to regain airspeed. Now at the age of 73 I still get a wave of emotion from the "Vulcan Howl" that I heard so clearly that day. If you are interested search on youtube for "Vulcan Rongotai"

At 55, I remember the V-Bombers were a common sight at air-shows in the 70's and 80's, but its the Vulcan that stands out in my mind as the most awesome...as it passed overhead in a low flyby the earth literally shook, and the sound was deafening. It was the highlight of any airshow I visited in my youth.

Ungodly cross winds on this day. The pilot did a magnificent job bleeding off the speed with the rear wheels on th epavement while the nose "crabbed" as best it could into the wind.  Gorgeous aircraft. I salute that team that flew all the way to the Falklands to try to crater the runway.

Saw the last Vulcan fly over our house a few years back on its goodbye flight around the country ... am not ashamed to say I had tears running down my face as it arced over and let those wonderful engines do their stuff .. a sight I will never forget ..
