Keyser Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Found these in my dads slide collection thought you would like them Loads more to sort yet - Hopefully he will have some of the Victors and Vulcans he worked on when he was in the RAF. 4 Quote
Will370z Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Bet you are having a real trip down memory lane with all these photos 1 Quote
Keyser Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 I remember my dad taking me to see these - can't for the life of me think where it was, I still remember he told me about the twin props on the sub hunter plane and how it allowed them to fly slower. Mixed emotions I can tell you. 1 Quote

leonk Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Thanks Chris ... my God father worked for Handley Page on the design of the Victor http://www.airport-data.com/images/aircraft/thumbnails/000/425/425219.jpg At Woodford Aerodrome, just down the road from me. They are hoping to open a museum for the Vulcan in one of the old buildings. Quote
sipar69 Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Thanks Chris ... my God father worked for Handley Page on the design of the Victor Cool. My Dad was flight crew in the Victor, based at RAF Marham in Norfolk in the 70s. He once snuck me into the cockpit for a look when we lived on the base. Awesome aircraft. I can still remember the incredible roar when one took off during an open day at the base. Edited April 10, 2015 by sipar69 Quote
veilside z Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 WOW, they are certainly good looking beasts. How nice to recapture memories from the past gone by. Thanks for sharing them. Quote
