The Avro Vulcan V-Bomber stream take-off was a powerful image of the Cold War years. As part of the V-Force, the Avro Vulcan was the backbone of the UK's airborne nuclear deterrent. The scramble was a hugely noisy and spectacular event which was regularly practiced during the Cold War, bringing the whole of the area around the airfield to a standstill. Those who witnessed it will still remember the fantastic and spectacular display of power. The edition is limited to 350 signed and numbered copies.
