The Vulcan in flight always reminds me of the japanese flying monster Rodan.

Rich: It is the only flying Vulcan if I am not mistaken

Bruv: My brother was lucky enough to have been there with Help For Heros, he got a tour round the Lanc and also the Hurricane! So jelous! I saw the Vulcan in flight at Leuchars Airshow last year and she was sensational! Great pics! Thanks for sharing!
