Vulcan Bomber makes one last flight

Vulcan Bomber

The last airworthy Vulcan Bomber has taken to the skies to fly one last time before it retires.

The Cold War plane has made its last show, after fears were raised over safety issues.

It was joined by the Red Arrows, the Royal Air Force's acrobatic team, to perform a flypast at the Southport Air Show on Saturday.

The Vulcan Bomber's career began with carrying Britain's first nuclear bombs and it was built as part of efforts to deter Russia from launching an attack.
