I love the lines of the British V bombers, just so Flash Gordon. Sort of too bad that the avionics apparently weren't really that far advanced from the Lancaster Bombers of WWII.
Cool.
+Lorne Thomas looks VERY similar to ANOTHER famous bomber.
The Boeing B-2 "Spirit" stealth bomber.

Bloody thing looks like it's way ahead of it's design.
great foto handley page … remember this from an airfix box cover. and yes great design ahead of its time, or found in german ww2 war spoils.
Back when Britain ruled the jet age……before we sold it to the Russians
+Lorne Thomas manufacturing by Lucas?
You would bring The Prince of Darkness in to this, wouldn't you +keith olszewski
+Lorne Thomas yeah, that was mean……..but still..
Love these old type of bombers best ever
Thank you for sharing photo
I recommend this video, it took 13 Victor refuellers to get one Vulcan to the Falklands in the Falklands war.
A touch and go story for the Vulcans, but the Victors performed faultlessly.
