Hi,

Doncaster Robin Hood Airport is forced to close after pilots on the last flying Vulcan bomber abort take-off due to a fault.

Jeez!
I remember seeing Vulcans in the 1950s flying over our house in Stockport at quite low altitudes, as they took off from and landed at the AVRO factory-base at nearby Woodford. Quite different from the earlier Lancs and Lincolns smile
