This is a remarkable story getting the Vulcans and Victors ready for a bombing run against the Stanley (Falklands) runway. Almost bizarre stuff but definitely a story that I, and no doubt others, found fascinating.
It's 25 years ago now, today you can fly a 747 non stop from London to Sydney, but in 1982, getting a Vulcan down into the South Atlantic took more that a few gallons of avtur.
Gripping stuff, well worth the read.
