Vulcans new home
Not sure if this is true or not, but I have been told that the Vulcan is now based at RAF Lynham, can anyone confirm this?
Re: Vulcans new home
Well, Vulcans are not in service anymore, but there is at least one preserved in flying conditions... maybe it's the one you are talking about?
Re: Vulcans new home
Its not based there but it is there for servicing at the moment to ready for the 2010 airshow season.
Is it just me that thinks that the Vulcan will probably survive longer than Lyneham itself?

Re: Vulcans new home
They always seem to get money at the last minute to keep it flying, but it is costing so much, who knows how long it will last?
Re: Vulcans new home
the vulcan has enough funding to fly untill 2012 at this present moment. (my friend works with the trust)
