Saw a Vulcan many years ago at a local airshow. Very impressive. The pilot brought it down to just touch wheels on the runway, then hit full power and took her up again.
Think my ears have still to recover!

I remember Bush (#2) making a speech round about the time of the Iraq war (#2) when he said that
we had to go to war in order to maintain (the) peace.
I thought that was BS then too.
