    In the late seventies! I had a magical experience! My mum was driving up to Worthing on the old A30 from Cornwall and at one point we had the sunroof open and a low level aircraft was getting louder and louder! Then it really went black I looked up through the sunroof and it was one of these! I'm now 65 my parents are passed on but I will need forget the sound and experience that day! Try and keep this going guys! That was just fantastic to see all the shear hard work you all did! Bravo!

    Will the remaining taxiable Vulcans ever fly again?

    there are no current plans for this Vulcan - XL426, but XM655 is the newest taxiable vulcan. So the XM655 team say that it would be the most likely candidate, but i dont belive there are any current plans.

    It's impossible. As a Complex aircraft the CAA require the original manufacturers to support any flying, but Airbus and Rolls Royce are not interested. Indeed their withdrawal of support is what grounded XH558 after its 2015 season.

    Well you know you guys shoot for him that's you and the other Vulcan like every 10 years you guys should push to do one flight every 10 years cuz spares are almost gone but if you could do that you keep memory alive with everybody and it's such an incredible aircraft did it helped Aviation a lot the Vulcan had a lot of groundbreaking equipment on board when it was developed I'm American from San Pedro California by father worked for North American Aviation for over 30 years he helped develop the xb70 and the B1 and other aircraft and spacecraft. The other thing you guys got to constantly can't remind people if they don't understand it already how British Aviation has changed the world it really has it's a beautiful aircraft thank you for keeping it that way
