I was there on Sat as well Cliff.
It was great to see her flying, I remember the anticipation across the crowd during a bit longish preparation for takeoff, and the final "ufff, and yes, she's flying" whispered by may people around , nice moment.

"Memories” I went to “The” RAF anniversary do and we had three each of the “V” bombers all in formation + all of the aircraft in service in threes doing a flypast for service personnel and the Royals (Queen and Philip).
The planes flew down the runway, low level and a steep climb away and the ground shook, one Vulcan is noisy but 9 V's make a very memorable sound, maybe that is why I am slightly deaf
Nice shot by the way Piotr
