Among the more popular posts on this site is one that addresses old planes (Old Planes, Good Planes). In that vein, and acknowledging that this site is focused on commercial aviation, we could not resist sharing this video with you. There is something special about beautifully preserved classic airplanes. For example the Breitling Super Connie. Below is the gorgeous Avro Vulcan, based in the UK, that is still thrilling to watch. This display was at the 2011 RIAT. The Vulcan dates back to 1952 – making it as old as the B-52.

Thanks for the link to the video of the Avro Vulcan. For many years in the late 1960s and 1970s, the Avro Vulcan was an annual highlight of the Abbotsford Airshow in British Columbia. This brought back memories from 35 years ago …
