A few from me, pity I don't still have the shots of 558 and Reds from the Great Warbirds at West Malling, but that's another (long) story.

nothing is confirmed at a show until its u/c hits the tarmac or it is running in for its display.....

Sorry it's only a scan..... "FAREWELL" as shown at it's last public RAF display at Cranfield airshow... whilst they played the last post. Those that were there will remember, not a dry eye in sight....
I honestly thought I'd never see it fly again...... Then I got to sit in her at RIAT 2009 and see her fly 4 times in 4 days.
Well done to all involved once again.

Next stop Sunderland
She visited us at Elvington on her way back from Sunderland on the Sunday too!
Hopefully another Vulcan fix on Saturday if she visits us on he rway back from Leuchars again
