IT sure does have big shoes to fill. The flight1 Vulcan is still awesome. I hope it competes!!

It would be rather ironic if the Iris Vulcan is released just as the last remaining flying Vulcan is grounded forever due to lack of funds. Seeing one of those fly really is something special. I was lucky to see one at an air display, setting off all the car alarms!

Yes Ian, I wholeheartedly agree. We ARE in discussions with VTST though to licence the product as an officially endorsed Vulcan to the Sky branded product, however their priorities are different to ours right at the moment..lol.

I'm hoping they make the amount they need, or even close enough to keep her going for the moment as more income comes in.

Yep.


The Vulcan is probably the sexiest of the V-bombers. Hope someone can create a Black Buck mission to go with it :amen:

WOW

Really good gauge work. I love a good VC. It makes all the difference. :applause:
I'll be honest. The Valcan has never really caught my fancy, but I might just get this one.

EDIT: Is there a manual to download for now, just to have a peek? :wiggle:
