Not Below 20,000ft - RAF Avro Vulcans over Grand Canyon.
Painting by Artist Paul Couper
Royal Air Force Vulcans inbound to Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada arrive in style for the 1982 'RED FLAG' exercises. Pilot, Flt. Lt. Martin Withers flies down the Grand Canyon providing a spectacular sight and sound for tourists while the second aircraft, flown by Sqn Ldr Alistair 'Monty' Montgomery stays above the rim of the canyon. On arrival to Nellis, both pilots are surprised to find a "Not Below 20,000ft" flight rule for the area.
