i was there i managed to get inside one to take a look smelly and sweaty inside and dirty too mmmmm
Thanks for posting may visit this weekend.
I just learned what this is and what it was for - bloody hell do the RAF have huge baws
That looked like it was on the edge of stalling, but I'm open to being wrong. Idk planes well enough so I may be reading the body language of the plane wrong
They mentioned about ‘Florence’ in the BBC Panorama documentary “A Bad Deal For Britain” just a year before the Nimrod AEW was officially cancelled. I sure hope that Shackleton survived long enough till 1991 to get a much needed retirement.
I went there few weeks ago there is much less of this plane 😪
That must be the cleanest burn from a Vulcan. Usually plenty of exhaust smoke?
I'm on the Solway Firth coast and always heard stories about bombs, phosphorus setting on fire on boats etc. Do they still dump (placement MOD) any DU shells in the Solway Firth and surrounding area. ❤
My Uncle Arthur was one of the crew. He was my Dad's twin brother.
So ugly, they were beautiful, an example of form fits function, did a job and did it well, shame there are no airworthy examples😢
Wont be able to sleep now after seeing this.

Clean up on isle 4.
I always loved Woodford.
Incredible performance and what a plane when Britain was master of the aircraft industry before politicians got involved and cancelled everything
I was there,fantastic.
That howl is just phenomenal. And the fact that an aircraft of this size can pretty much go straight up from take-off shows, just what a magnificent piece of British engineering yhe vulcan really is. Totally awesome!
Very impressive climb out atthe end!! Thankyou
Such a beautiful & impressive plane
Such a shame BAE Systems Woodford has been raised to the ground to be replaced by an identikit housing estate. There remains odd bits of architecture and a small museum on the outskirts of the site.
How do I contact you buddy
I was lucky enough to see XH558 on her last visit to South Wales. I was on the local beach and she roared overhead on route to the Swansea air show, having done a fly past over RAF St Athan. Made me proud to be British.
Nearly impossible to dislike the sound of them engines and that steep takeoff ability!!
Love this video,the old red battered volvo F88 is our old truck,we used to deliver Napolina products all over the UK and E8 and E11 were our hangars,good times.
Very interesting. How did you find it? I'd like to go but not sure where it is. Good old video. Thanks.
Hi Jamie, Glad you like the vid. The Map ref is 825214 - Landranger OS map No.160. regards, Rol.

Grew up in Newark-upon-Trent Just 2 miles from RAF Syston, Watching the Vulcans was incredible
Britain at its best
Wow really interesting to see this footage! I've been trying off and on over the last couple of years to find reference to this wreck as when I was much younger I visited here with friends on a dads+kids holiday. We were staying in a bunkhouse nearby and Ive really fond memories of it but neither myself nor my dad can remember where the bunkhouse was - all I know for sure is we climbed up from the bunkhouse to this site. Dont suppose youd be able to give the gps coords to the site itself? (If you even see this comment on a 2 year old video)... I think Im onto sonething with 52.7155518, -3.6534490 but would really appreciate if you knew anything
Loverly photos of aircraft types mostly not flying now used to see a-10s regularly at manston and f1-111s mainly ones from lakenheath occasionally saw ones from upper heyford including the ef1-11a miss those days hopefully manston will reopen
I’m pretty certain my father helped Neil get the engine all wired up for this aircraft when it was in Leuchars in Scotland. Seem to remember he may have also helped install the props after overhaul. I remember him telling me about it many years ago. It’s a large ungainly looking beast that’s for sure but impressive none-the-less.
I was posted to AEW 8 Sqn as a air radar mechanic in 1971, we fitted the AN-APS20 radar from the RN Fairy Gannet into the Shackleton. The lovely growl of the Griffin engines, very much the “Old Grey Lady”, an aircraft from a past era.
There was also a more advanced FAW Mk 8 version with Firestreak missiles at the other main gate.
Well its been 9 years and you finally got a comment. Thank you for sharing. The a/c was pretty much in one piece after the crash. The wreck was left where it was for a while, being too difficult to recover. However, the wreck kept being reported by over flying aircraft as a fresh accident so, eventually a RAF salvage team hiked up to the site, chopped it into pieces and pushed it over the edge. Eight RCAF men were killed in the crash. They took off on a night training flight and got lost, decended through cloud to ascertain their position and hit the summit. Judging how intact the a/c was when initially found, the crew realised their mistake and climbed to avoid the impact. The cairn of stones roughly marks the point where the aircraft hit and ground to a stop. As you both know, its pretty flat in that area. A few more feet and they would have cleared it.
In 76 I stood outside at the end of the runway and watched a Vulcan do 4 touch and goes for a cameraman stationed half way down the runway
My grandpa flew 8 missions in this plane. Captain Robert Ratcliffe.
That's TF-FIU, not TF-FIC. And That's a Boeing 757-256 not a Boeing 757-23N.
I miss Woodford Air Show it was just around the corner for me I worked on the fire suppression systems and my uncle was a sparkie fitting them out good days loved it there
That must have beeen absolutely spectacular to hear

Steampunkest aircraft ever, I love the Gannet.
An astonishing aircraft.
My first posting after joining the RAF in 1969 was to Ballykelly NI. Most of the aircraft for 8 Squadron came from there, as it closed in 1971. Best moment, watching the outgoing Station Commander beat up the airfield in one. Always fond memories.
A Fitting Memorial for a very Courageous bunch of people from across the Pond. Thank you very much for helping us. A moving video. Thanks
