We had a CCF camp at RAF Waddington in the 1960s when it was home to
the nuclear deterrent Vulcans. One was loud but a flight taking off on
one of the quick-response exercises was awesome. But not as awesome as
sitting in the rear gunner's turret of the last flying Lancaster.

Living on the flightpath for both Cambridge Airport (home of unusual
maintenance contracts like RAF Tristars) and IWM Duxford, we get rather
spoiled. Last week sitting in the garden it was the Red Arrows in full
display mode, the week before it was the only B17 Flying Fortress in
Europe,
doing training circuits around my house.

All we got here was lots of Dreamliner test flights last summer. Coming
over at about 2000 feet.

You also had BA's A380 training flights last summer.
