Today really is Vulcan Day

After putting in the blog on the Southend Airport, a friend of mine asked if I knew of any more.

Well, I am going to look at a later time, however, I can now note 3 in good condition.

1)    XH558     – Bruntingthorpe    –    this one should fly again soon – Website

2)    XL426     –  Southend               –   This one does fast taxi’s            – Website

3)    XM655    – Wellesbourne         –   This one does fast taxi’s too   –   Website

So I am really happy now that three of these glorious planes are at least in a condition to perform to the crowds.  It would be even nicer if all three could return to flight.  I suppose only time will tell,  now that XH558 is about to fly in airshows, the other two may see it viable.  I can almost see it now, a flying delta shape made up of 3 Vulcans, trailed by the red arrows.  WOW.  And for a complete flight of fancy, how about some Concordes.!!
