I'll never forget watching the "new" Vickers Vimy flying into Goodwood at Revival about 10 years ago on it's final flight it was an incredible looking machine.
Richard I was lucky enough to be there on that day too. Quite remarkable was the scale effect i.e. it is quite a large plane and a slow plane. Scale effect makes it appear to fly even more slowly than it does. I couldn't help but think "Oh, this is just as it would have appeared to viewers in 1919." Quite a moment.
That's good to hear you shared it Kerry, a very special moment. I had never considered the scale factor but really get that feeling it looked like it was about to stall to me.
