Here is a site I found and it has some very untrue info on its “survivors” page
http://www.aviationclassics.org.uk/vsurvive.html
XH558,XL426 may take to the air once more if sufficient funds can be raised
Yep fine could happen XM655 should be on the list to in fact its the only one that would fly right now
558 is in bits and 426 has a few minior problems that mean it would not take off 655 would
I am not trying to have a go at vrt they have done good or state that 655 is about to fly is not im just pointing out the facts
Anyway get read nothing will prepeare you for this one
A pretty reliable rumour also exists that XM598 at RAF Cosford may well be fully airworthy again within a couple of years
What a shame this comment is on a very good site lets the site down a bit I feel
Yep it would be a nice dream to see it fly again cause with 598 it would be a dream and once i wake up that would be the end of it

Some know-it-all told me some years ago that the Wellesbourne runway was too short to get XM655 out again anyway.
He may really have known what he was talking about but people that profess to know everything put me off.
Don’t know if it’s true but it’s irrelevant anywy.

Nothing. Except porn of course.
