Vulcan Over Cambridge

An Avro Vulcan bomber performed a flypast over Cambridge Airport on 27th August 2015. The aircraft, XH558, was the last flying Vulcan in its last year of flying. The images below are in chronological order - the flypast consisted of a pass, a large radius turn, and a second pass followed by a steep climb. Its first pass stopped the traffic on the A1303!
