Mike Kilo Victor One takes to the skies
Mike Kilo Victor One, Passing Clouds’ preserved Vulcan bomber, is rolling out for a summer spree of aerial excursions and seat of the pants mayhem.
Thirty minute trips from Heron Gwlad, our very own aerodrome, are scheduled for the coming months and will take in stunning views of Penmaenmawr and the Great Orme during a breathtaking sweep over Liverpool Bay and the Irish Sea.
People still chuckle over the slight hiccup during last winter's 'Santa Special' when a thermo nuclear device simulator accidentally slipped out of the bomb bay over Rhyl. Not so, Tiger Roberts, Mike Kilo’s pilot and senior maintenance engineer. “It could have been a passenger!” he warned, cleverly twiddling a universal metric ratchet in his experienced crafts-manlike hands.
The summer schedule kicks off with a fully booked flight celebrating the wedding of Mike and Sue Peach (both airline pilots who own a Caravelle Super 48 footer on the retreat) The matrimonial bond is being timed for a surprise, simulated bomb run over Penmaenmawr’s Golden Gyro pub, where the happy couple first met, and will doubtless be cheered by many cowering well wishers from the darts team in the Gyro’s car park below.
The remainder of the summer flights feature a galaxy of stars who will perform live in-flight entertainment for your enjoyment. Topping the bill will be old favourite and singing legend, Tony Fondle! Followed by a special quiz night extravaganza, featuring questions themed on the cold war.
So what are you waiting for?
Tickets available from Heather Roberts at reception. Ext 4385
