Nice to know it's flying again. Was at Farnborough for quite a while with brake problems. Magnificent plane.

I've got the day off to take the family down there. Hope the weather doesn't spoil it.

I have flown in one of these. It was probably the loudest experience of my life. Its so solid, you really can't believe that it will fly.

Great flying machine; it is loud; but not as loud as a Motorhead concert in a round venue [H]

Aircraft dear boy, aircraft !

Aircraft dear boy, aircraft !

Well said. Aircraft or Aeroplane.

Thank you. You have just managed to disrupt my team's work as we discuss the differences, including moving on to the technical stuff on how things fly and as to what category that they then fall in to (helicopter is an aircraft).

For the Vulcan, I perhaps should have used the word "beast".

(helicopter is an aircraft).

No, a helicopter is an accident looking for somewhere to happen.

Always a good day, i'll be looking forward to it.
