Vulcan

I definitely can't call myself an airplane aficionado, but I sure can appreciate an amazing design. Although the objective of these Jet Fighters is making war (which is always a bad thing), these are some amazing example of design and engineering. If we look just at the bright side of these, the idea of people flying at absurd speeds, we can actually appreciate the power of these beasts. I've selected some great examples of jet fighters, but if you think we forgot any other jets you like…

Photographer Andy Rouse had the best seat in the house when he was lucky enough to photograph the iconic Avro Vulcan bomber XH558 flying over Beachy Head, East Sussex

Good god I miss her... Another stunner from Robin Pettifer RP Aviation Images #Vulcan #XH558 Vulcan to the Sky Trust

Vulcan bomber with ? Harriers // Er, no - it's the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team or 'The Red Arrows' - and they are Hawks :)

Red Arrows crew tweet spectacular photos of flypast with Vulcan at Southport Air Show

Only problem when using a Prime lens, you don't get all the formation in the shot.
