Hi Arfur,
How goes? Shame about Fairford being cancelled. Did you by an chance get
to Waddington on the 8th and get to see XH558 flying?
Oh, and the answer to your question is yes since you yourself have just
asked a question in all caps.

I don't know why you're saying I'm defragged! Anyway my name certainly isn't
Shane! They even made a moving picture about me, you may have seen the
famous scene: "I am Arturo Seis!" "No, *I* am Arturo Seis!""No! *I* am
Arturo Seis!""No!...etc etc etc!"
!
No, really my name is Walter Cronkite. Not *the* Walter Cronkite. Arturo
'Walter Cronkite' Seis. I am an anchorman on Canal+ España.
Are you related to Emily Figgs?

Indeed! Not only that, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight was to fly over
a few weeks earlier and got diverted because of balloons! Of course, the 35
mile fly past should have gone over head but was nowhere to be heard. On the
Monday there was the occasional jet-going-home sound - including about a
dozen, presumably an aerobatic team going home after spending the weekend on
their nether regions. Didn't even see the usual B-1 and B-52! Finally a
Tornado went by directly over the house and below the low cloud cover,
almost like a consolation 'buzz'!
> chance get to Waddington on the 8th and get to see XH558 flying?
No. Which 8th was that??? I looked at the RIAT site before Kemble to see if
it was booked, and it wasn't even in the list of possibles, so I went to the
XH558 site to see that it had only just completed trial flights enabling the
application for a licence to be submitted - so it seemed out of the question
of seeing it at this years shows.
I'm going to have to go back to the site and see what you mean!

Now imagine this without Mike - no way!
How refreshing, to liven things up a bit.
Rightaway my machine works better, too.
Thanks for the 'shot in the arm'.
P.S.: Don't think Shane would have tried this, even though it was a 'good
guess'.

It is a beautiful plane. I remember when it came to Toronto in 1982
with a slightly lecherous member of the military looking for young
chicks, lol. I told him E. was off limits!!
I ran the Cdn. International Air Show that year and E. was my secretary.
What a blast that was!! Art Scholl doing his fabulous stunt
flying.....our gorgeous Snowbirds.....sigh.

Yes, indeed. They've done an exceptional job!
The Hendon Vulcan ought to be easy enough to restore, next! I seem to recall
it was flying up until it was dismantled and taken there, then reassembled
in it's current position. Wonder why the CAA won't allow any Lightnings to
fly again - the one at Bruntingthorp ought to be capable of being made
airworthy without too much effort.

I expect they figured (or Figged?) that would be virtually it's last outing.
They were mothballing them - then in '83 the Falklands happened and that
nuclear bomber was recalled and finally got to drop some ordinance - just
the conventional kind - on Port Stanley, refuelled by several of that other
outstanding nuclear bomber which by then was solely a tanker, of which like
the Vulcan until a few months ago, there are none flying today (but like the
Bruntingthorp Lightning there is at least one doing take off rolls) the
Handley Page Victor: http://www.skomer.u-net.com/thunder/victor.jpg
Amazing story. And thanks again Mike for sending me the vid! Think I'll
watch it again.

I never really liked the Victor but that picture makes it look good.
BTW I have had sitting here for ages another disk of videos, not Vulcan
but rather various other UK post WWII aircraft including two my Dad worked
on - the Gannet and the Airco 121 (cannot remember if the number was 121)
later DH121 then HS121 better known as Trident. I even managed to find on
YouTube a clip of another he worked on during the 50s, the Rotadyne,
including shots of a demo it made of moving a bridge where I was standing
close to the film crew.
