      Saw a comment on the Vulcan to The Sky FB page that if TG had really wanted to annoy the Argentinians, they would have picked a numberplate including the characters XM607....

  6. People are saying that Tangmere's footplate was on fire passing Dawlish? I reckon it was just the reflection of the firebox.
