Agree, impressive maneuverability for such size. Checked out some of the cockpit shots as well, pretty limited FOV.

Cool!
The Vulcan is my favourite of the V bombers, being the Victor a close second best.
The commentator says Martin Withers was flying the airplane. I already read this name on a series of books I have. Am I wrong, or is Withers a member of the crew that took part to the first Black Buck mission?

You are quite right, he captained Black Buck One, the first Vulcan bombing raid on Stanley, although when the two-ship took off, he was reserve, the other Vulcan developed a fault and had to return to Ascension, so it was only fate that handed him that first mission
