Couple of clips of the Vulcan at Leuchars Airshow today....rather loud 🙂 Good to see the Red Arrows flying as an eight as well.

Great plane! Saw it at Shoreham airshow last year (or the year before). Old Skool Loud! 🙂
Excellent.
Needs moar English Electric Lightning though.
The weather was poor at times and limited what was flying. F16 was pretty awesome as well though.
Howling nicely today
I was jiffed with working there today (based at waddo so a bit of a trek!!!) I have to say in comparison to waddos air show it's a bit sparse. I was living the dream selling programs at the St Andrews park and ride.
Been ages since I went to an airshow and I loved it. Vulcan and Dutch F16 were highlights. Shame the Gripen was rained off, as I was enjoying the noise.
I Have to see this aircraft flyng sometime. I just seem to keep missing it.
Great memories of Woodford aerospace back in the day 🙂
Awe inspiring sight to see. Lucky it's in the air as well, they work hard to keep her up. http://www.vulcantothesky.org/
The red arrows will fly as an 8 for the rest of the season now. Fortunatley that doesn't happen too often.
First time at an air show and loved it..
Vulcan was great,
Liked the second F16 flight more
and really enjoyed the euro fighter display at the end...
Was that the last Leuchars air show? 🙁 The highlight of my summer as a kid.
Lovely, captured The Howl beautifully! Thanks for posting. 8)
Brings back some great memories of Duxford in September with Dad.

I remember seeing a Lightning many many years ago, at (I think) Biggin hill, came from behind the crowd line and went straight up.. Awesome..

I was fortunate enough to have my brother serve in 43 Squadron back in the 90's and was an air cadet as a teen and did three years summer camp up there, managed to have a go in a few nice bits of kit, Wessex chopper, Tornado and a non flying but running Lightning, thinking about it now brings goose bumps but amazingly now as a 37 year old I'm [i]proper[/i] aerophobic 😆
