A VULCAN AT THE AIR TATTOO

The last surviving Vulcan bomb still flying - makes as flypast tour of the East this afternoon.

The flying tour is to honour the men and women of the RAF who kept Britain safe during the "Cold War".

The aircraft's official show commentator, Sean Maffett, says she's an truly historic machine: "Vulcan has a reputation as the country's favourite aeroplane.

Any event which books her can expect quite a jump in audience numbers."
