Vulcan Pilots

Just a thought I had today, probably not for this show but I was wondering if any ex Vulcan pilots would be able to attend a future event. After all these guys were the front line (along with the other V Bombers of course) of Britains first strike capability on the cold war. Where they are able to I'm sure they would have some interesting stories to tell.

 

Not sure how do-able this is but I was also thinking this could be linked in with the Vulcan to the Sky campaign (http://www.tvoc.co.uk/). I would think if some ex pilots were willing to donate their fees/income from the day then it could generate some extra funds for their campaign, additionally it might bring in some extra punters for the show.

 

Just a thought, may not be to everyones tastes of course!

I thought you were suggesting we get Leonard Nimoy when I read the thread title but I don't think he flew any planes!
