There are just 11 years between the first flights of these two aircraft, the Avro Lancaster in 1941 & Avro Vulcan in 1952.
What makes it more incredible is that they were designed by the same man, Mr Roy Chadwick (1893-1947). #Griffin. 🤜🏻🇬🇧🤛🏻

Around 950,000 British women worked in munitions factories during WW2, making weapons like shells and bullets. Munitions work was often well-paid but involved long hours, sometimes up to seven days a week, and workers were at serious risk from accidents.
