The B1 nose that was scrapped was not all complete after many years as a ground training airframe for the RAF.

Vulcan and Victor were not in such good shape I agree they look in good conidition. It would have taken a lot of funds to treat the corrosion funds that were not available.

I know I read a while ago they were both scrapped, I take the climate in Britain had a lot to do with it.

Happier times for both the Victor and Vulcan. I was working at the museum (Thursday Evenings-Sundays and most Saturdays at that time.

Great photos Robert. Both the Vulcan and Victor look to be in pretty good external shape back in 1981.
