From the YAM Web site:
On Sunday 30th November 2003, to mark the 10th Anniversary of the arrival of the Victor K.2 Tanker at Elvington, the Museum has teamed up with Elvington Parks to run the Victor and Buccaneer aircraft on the adjacent airfield. Many frequent visitors to the Museum will remember the afternoon of November 25th 1993, when the Victor, a Falklands and Gulf War veteran, thundered into Elvington. To add to the spectacle and excitement, a fully airworthy Hawker Hunter, owned by Peter Shann of Elvington Parks, will also be putting on a display, subject to serviceability.

The Lightning is engineless..I believe:(
Any updates as the Victors problems?

The Lightning is privately owned so it’s very much up to the owner to decide what he wants to do with her.

This was complete uponm delivery from the air force but was defueled and decommisioned as well as having its ejection seats made safe. I bet the raf removed some items to keep the others flying.
