have you heard of operation black buck?
I most certainly have! It's one of the most interesting and best moments from the Vulcan's career and also shows off the Victor as well in its later tanker role. I also can't help but imagine it must have been terrifying to be an Argentine AA gunner lounging around your post, safe in the knowledge that the British carriers are thousands of miles away, only to hear the howl of a Vulcan coming in at low altitude straight towards your position.

My Favourite planes of each era:
WW1: Sopwith Camel - There was a model of it in my school. Interwar: Amiot 143 - Looks goofy. WW2: P-51 Mustang - Sexual. Post-war: English Electric Lighting - There was also a model of it in my school, my favourite teacher's dad flew one. That weird middle bit: McDonald's McDC-10 - I like how it looks. 80's: AV8-B Harrier - Obviously. Before that but also after it: F-16 Fighting Falcon - LOOK AT THOSE LINES OOUGUH. Contemporary: F-35C - VTOL.
#Honourable mentions:#MiG 21 - love the nose#Avro Lancaster - My Bomber; i had several airfixes and i have a lil diecast now#Avro Vulcan - Longest bombing sortie ever; looks goofy; wide wide boy wednesday
