Vulcan at Hastings 15th June
worth a view of this Awesome plane if you have or have not seen sorry bit geeky really
http://www.vulcantothesky.org/appearances.html 330pm its due |
Ah cool, flies over my gaff on the way and way back, I'll have my camera ready.
|
Indeed, it was in the local paper last week. Looking forward to it, just a shame it can't bomb the pier.
|
Cool, might pop over if I'm free. Otherwise I hope to go to Shoreham again in September (assuming the Vulcan displays there again....)

Deff need to see this

It's an amazing sight - May try to pop down as the flying time left may now be limited
|
Nice one.
I didn't see it at all last year, so keen to remedy that this summer! |
Awsome plane and Awsome noise, feel privileged to have climbed around inside one when I was in the air cadets many many moons ago :)

How is that geeky Sim?????? :razz: Where's the best place to view Scott? Going to see it at Manston the following weekend as well, where it is landing/taking off as well as displaying!! That's an awesome experience as well if you haven't seen it! :-P |
It's the last year for flying I think as money running out to keep it in the air

Park in the main town car park and walk up through Wellington square. I was up on the East Hill when the Red Arrows came last summer and got a great view. |

Excellent too Sim. We were here on the front, so this was the closest shot I could get of Beachy Head http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...cture163-4.jpg Another special moment at Eastbourne! http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...cture201-4.jpg |
Nice pics.
It really is an amazing sight. |
Reminder. ...Please donate what you can to keep her flying.
For anyone coming down to the seafront the best ice creams are from the crazy golf kiosk and the best fish and chips are from the blue dolphin. If you just want a cake or sausage roll then judges bakery up the high street in the old town opposite the Church. I will be up by the castle from around 3pm. |

The big bird is also displaying in Rye at 4:00pm.
I'm not sure what to do now.....if you go upto Fairlight you would get 2 displays !!!!!! one to the west and one to the east.......... Oh! I so want to be in 2 places....A scoob is quick but not sure it can race a Vulcan to Rye once the display finishes in Hastings..... |
Would love to see the plane but ill be busy watching England beet Australia at rugby

Decided to go 'Up The Castle' (or on the perimeter of) with Big "E" if anyone else wants to come and find us.

Which means you can see best part of the sea front. |
Found this quote on the VTTS forum.
"She will be flying between the Harbour and Pier at Hastings! A RNLI friend who's manning the inshore Boat for the event reliably informs me!" I assume by harbour he means the fishing boats. Will look out for you Boys!! |

The view last year for the Red Arrows was spot on from the west hill as they flew in down The Bourne. I expect the Vulcan will come in under the cliff line from the east..... Cheers for the update too Keith.... |
Well what a display!!! :doubleup:
:10: to the pilot in what must have been very difficult flying conditions.. |
Quote:
Photo's are uploading and will pop them up in a mo'. |
Nice pictures, yours or Oliver's ?
|
Excellent.
Glad it was clear. Peed it down on and off here today. |
Great pics! Some more in "General Pics"
The revised display for 2013, including the new spiral climb, was excellent. Lots more power noise!!! Kev Rumens (pilot) produced a fabbo display as Scott says, in difficult conditions indeed! Having seen that display today, now very much looking fwd to next saturday at Manston :ok: |

Top pics fella, like the undercarriage down shot.
|
Used to see this fly at Newbury air show many years ago. Always had a soft spot for this.
Fantastic pictures there. |
Nice photos Scott :doubleup: although if it was as windy as it was over here i'm glad i wasn't on a cliff top!
Now showing as displaying at Shoreham on Sunday 1st Sept so will hopefully see it there :) |
