a lovely day and then found this jaguar along with 12 of its family parked at the end of the runway, still in my opinion one of the best looking aircraft used by the RAF in recient years. but of course the Vulcan will always be the best.

at least they saved the cockpit, now in the hands of collectors, please visit www.vulcantothesky.com to save the last airworthy vulcan and keep the delta lady where she belongs....

St. Athen is famous for being the final resting place for many Vulcan airframes, hopefully a sight that we won't see again....
