I've just been speaking to the Vulcan team, it's moving from it's current location up to Doncaster soon (dunno which base) so keep your eyes open over the next week or so.

All the Vulcan spares and old engines are in my companies unit next door. One of the engines was destroyed by a bird strike, they've got the side panel off it revealing the turbine blades, they use it for education now, there's an ejector seat just inside the door and the 4 remaining Olympus engines in cradles.

I can reveal the Vulcan will be flying into Doncaster airport on Tuesday next week so keep your eyes open. It looks like it might become it's permanent home.

Saw her fly at Goodwood last year.

First time since the Air Fair at Biggin when I was about 9 or 10.

Felt like a kid again watching her do her stuff.

No low level pass this time though Fucking health and safety wankers!

Simply awesome. Highly recommended. Traffics a bit gash but that's the only downside!

They also have one a Lyhnam.

Never been to a air show, but I've seen it flying about.

A bloke I work with has a picture of his Pirtek van parked next to it in the hanger.
