Avro Vulcan –Cold War Warrior
Originally designed to penetrate higher than the 1960s Soviet fighter capability, and with an operational height of 65,000ft this was achievable. The advent of improved missile technology frustrated that operational profile and the Vulcan had to follow in the footsteps of the CanberraBI8 and go down into the weeds. Re-engineered to withstand the stresses of low level flying the Vulcan was a potent threat for many more years. Seen here in typical European winter weather at it’s operational height, supposedly 250ft!

Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
