I gotta chuckle when I read comments such as "Amazing quality for a pic taken over 40 years ago". Undoubtedly posted by a "20 or 30 something". My grandfather was a photographer in the Signal Corp and I have 3 albums full of EXCELLENT fotos of WW ONE (1914-1917)

A visitor from United States posted Thu January 17, 2008:
Amazing quality! This picture was taken over 40 years ago and is of amazing quality, much better than anything I've ever taken! A Five Star shot for sure!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue November 27, 2007:
With the recent return to flight of a Vulcan, sounds and sights like this excellent, evocative picture will be experienced again.
Alex Christie's excellent photos from decades past, are an outstanding collection.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed August 15, 2007:
Love the contrasts here: the way the sunlight catches the underside of the aircraft against interesting sky/cloud colours. This nuclear bomber appears graceful, peaceful even; an object of beauty. Dark smoke from the engines only hints at the ear-shattering noise which must have accompanied the flypast, and on closer inspection the aircraft's bomb bay doors are dead centre, but closed: the faintest reminder of the Vulcan's true purpose.

A visitor from Germany posted Mon April 2, 2007:
Amazing! I just can't believe the scan quality.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun April 1, 2007:
Amazing quality for a picture that is over 40 years old! This photograph really captures the speed and power of a Vulcan, you can almost hear the 4 Olympus engines roaring!

A visitor from Ireland posted Fri March 30, 2007:
Great light, very evocative shot.

A visitor from United States posted Wed March 28, 2007:
Beautiful plane. This shot looks awesome with the dark sky backdrop.
