In support of the recent hard work by Russ and the A-Team on the Vulcan B2, the Black Buck 1 Missions for the add-on are now complete.
You've seen the storyboard before, but never quite like this...
Vulcan B2 Enroute to target area with Victor K2.
Time for the K2 to say 'au revoir'.
RN Harrier (from HMS Invincible) on Black Buck CAP gets that funny prickly feeling on the back of his neck (high at 7 o'clock).
An unsuspecting Stanley airfield at dawn on 1st May 1982.
Bombs gone!, bomb bay doors closed, and still no signs of life down there.
Wakey Wakey!
Turning onto escape heading.
"Time to get out of here chaps!".
Perfect RV with earlier K2 tanker for the long trip home.
"Morning. Nice to see you again!".
Reunited.
Of course, it doesn't always go to plan.
Regards, comrpnt.
