A rattling good read

Just read Vulcan 607 for the 2nd time written By Rowland White the true story of the Bombing raid on The Falklands Islands in 1982 the only time the Vulcan was used in anger.

Re: A rattling good read

It doesn't sound like my kind of book but as far as rattling goes - we used to live near an airshow venue, which was visited by a Vulcan
It used to pass over our house at what seemed like 30' ... bomb doors open - you could almost see the colour of the pilot's eyes!
And everything rattled in our house - doorframes, windows, crockery, my teeth etc
Thanks for reminding me
