Vulcan 607 | Rowland White

It was to be one of the most ambitious operations since 617 Squadron bounced their revolutionary bombs into the dams of the Ruhr Valley in 1943... When Argentine forces invaded the Falklands in the early hours of 2 April 1982, Britain's military chiefs were faced with a real-life Mission Impossible.

A fascinating account of an incredible mission which changed the tempo of a war and in doing so potentially saved many lives. A well written account that is packed with detail, without being monotonous and slow.

I know they were F-14 Tomcats in Top Gun, but I‘m using today‘s #SoaringScores prompt as an excuse to post a photo of my favourite aircraft, and tag the book that tells the story of its use in the 1982 Falklands War, including the remarkable logistics of the in-flight refuelling exercise required to complete 12,200km round trip from Ascension Island to Port Stanley.
