The Best Vulcan Howl We’ve Ever Heard

A Spectacular Sight and Sound

This might be one of the most distinct Vulcan howls ever captured—recorded at London Southend Airport. The aircraft performed several high-power taxi runs, but on its final lap, it let out a breathtaking howl, capped off by a parachute braking moment that was pure perfection.

It’s hard to believe this engineering marvel was designed in the late 1940s, during the golden age of British aviation.

With its striking design and unmistakable roar, the Vulcan remains one of the most visually and audibly stunning aircraft ever built.

That howl? Pure British engineering brilliance. If only we could see it take to the skies once more!
