Talking of the maneuver's a Vulcan can pull off, the one that always impressed me was the procedure when it dropped a nuclear weapon, also I just found this old footage of a Vulcan being "rolled" at the 1955 Farnborough air show, commentary courtesy of Raymond Baxter.

Also I remember as a kid doing a project on the Valiant crash in Southwick, Sussex, which was no more than 500 yards from our school. I hasten to add this was in 1956, 8 years before I was born.
