Crikey, I love Vulcans, they're wonderful aircraft.
The climb rate & manoeuvrability are superb


Surviving Vulcans (http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co.uk/vulcan/index.html)

I'm not too sure of the geography of that area, but is it this one at Wellesbourne??

They usually remove the engines before laying them up.

Looks like they are moving ahead nicely with the Bruntingthorpe one.
