Well done to all that contributed.

We didn't miss, we hit the edge of the runway, which severely restricted the size of aircraft they could land there.

The Argentinians faked the damage to the airfield. The Vulcan bombers did not do any damage that prevented normal air operations from the airfield. It was the Harriers air superiority that prevented that and the inability of the Argentinians to extend the runway to permit Skyhawks and Mirages to use the airfield.

Vulcan 607? I read it too, quite amazing the resourcefulness the RAF showed in getting a Vulcan down there.

Fantastic book, also read it this year.
Must remember to pass it on to my brother, he's just come out of the Air Force and spent the last 12 years at RAF Waddington.

Especially as we missed, which is probably why it isn't mentioned in the article.

Oh right.

You'll be pointing out my error then, without using wikipedia.

Considering your research was wikipedia, I wouldn't be so sure.

You first. What damage did the Vulcan bombers do during the falklands ?

Unless you sit behind me, how would you have any idea what my research was?
