Hi peter

Yes the Vulcan is live but the engines are not run up they could be however as at least 3 are in very good condition.

The paintwork looks crap but its only cosmetic underneath its alot better and a repaint would have it looking good as new.

My she looks rough I do hope that she will be rpainted soon??? There appears to be a fair bit of ground equipment underneath her? Is this a sign that she is kept live?

I was there on the 2nd Sept. I dont know if it was someone working there i spoke to, but he seemed seroius about it.

But then If you they were missing when you were there, then It must of came to the museum like that.

Cheers for the info mate. 🙂

XM612 tail. Faded number.

Could do with a complete new repaint.

This is the last of the pics. If you like Once I get them onto a CD and get the better quality I will repost them?

Hope You all enjoy. 🙂

Awaiting a new paint job.

When were you there? I visited the museum in March / April and there were no props on it then.

Head on with 612.

54-9999. Ex Turkish airforce (16718), painted in USAF colours.

I really have to get these onto a Photo CD!!! This is such a clear shot on the actual photo. 🙁
