            I saw the Vulcan in flight two years ago when fishing on a Farm at Tilton on the Hill.. It flew low and slow about a half mile from right to left so I had a grandstand view....made my day!!:hapfeet::hapydancsmil:

                  Helps with a blue sky sheal looks better, thats a nice shot. I had a bit of cloud about but then there was blue sky at times, She looks great........ I could do with a polariser filter on my 70-300 mm lens might nip down to camera shop before I got to waddington tomorrow and get one.:biggrin:

                    Well I'm no wing walker and you wouldn't get me in a plane either, but my daughter jumped off a mountain last weekend attached to a parachute. She was paragliding for the first time with assistance, she doesn't seem to fear anything! :)

                        That's Vancouver you see below my daughter there.

                          I think anyone who does these things is bonkers. I watched one of the airline programmes last week and a new Cabin Crew gal had to do a 'wing ride' before she became Cabin Crew ... was it a chocolate company plane ... blue and yellow, orange and yellow?

                          I used to live in Montreal and Toronto many moons ago ... a beautiful place from what little I remember.
