Designed to drop a nuclear payload deep within Russia, this delta-winged aircraft together with the Victor and Valiant made up the UK V-Force. Used by the RAF between 1956 - 1984 the Vulcan held the record for the longest bombing mission in history when the RAF, flying from Ascension Island, bombed the strategically important Argentinian-captured runway at Port Stanley on the Falkland Islands. This presentation will explore all aspects of the aircraft. For example, why did each Vulcan carry a RAT?

About Guy Bartlett

Who Am I?

I'm an aviation historian and UAV pilot. I am also an experienced public speaker whose presentations are guaranteed to add extra sparkle to your club meeting or event. I use archive film footage, technology, music, humour and a genuine enthusiasm for the topics to provide a fascinating insight into mainly aviation-related subjects.

What Do I Do?

I use my own equipment to provide detailed but easily accessible talks about some of the most iconic aircraft ever to have flown. The talks are suitable for all ages and sexes and last either 45 or 60 minutes dependant on your requirements. The cost is the same for either. I require a blank wall or screen to project onto. Wall always preferred as I can project bigger, more immersive, visuals. I live in Maidstone, Kent and will happily travel across the South East. I also offer virtual presentations via Zoom. These are fully facilitated by myself, all the participants need to do is click on the link sent to them, sit back, and enjoy the talk. 100% Covid-19 safe!

Who Are My Talks For?

My talks are designed to be of interest to everyone whether they have an interest in aircraft or not. There are delivered in an energetic manner and I am always willing to take questions at the end. I have given presentations to numerous audiences ranging from school children, parent groups, professionals, enthusiast and older persons groups. I do not use jargon. My enthusiasm for the subject is often commented upon, and I my inclusive style ensures all will learn something.
