Video: "Flying de Havilland Vampire"

Flying de Havilland Vampire by Sergey Storm On 13th of August 2013 I had this rare chance to fly this beautiful Vampire. Her owner and pilot Matt Hampton demonstrates typical preflight walkaround, then we take off and do some basic aerobatics and low level flying. At the end Matt does classic Run & Brake and then we land. It was an amazing flight, despite her age, she is 62, she is flying very well. ©2014 YouTube, LLC 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066

Imperial War Museums has uploaded The Lusitania Camisole The Lusitania Camisole Imperial War Museums The Lusitania Camisole is one of the many objects featured in our new First World War Galleries. It was worn by Mrs Margaret Gwyer, a survivor of the sinking of RMS Lusitania passenger ship, which was torpedoed by the German navy on 7 May 1915. Mrs Gwyer fell into the water from a lifeboat and was sucked into one of the sinking ship's funnels. However, the explosion of one of the ship's boilers blew her back to the surface, where she was picked up and later reunited with her husband. She kept the oil-stained camisole as a reminder of her ordeal.
