I think the large chunk in the photograph survived. Why? Because I once bought a copy of the RAF Museums souvenir video (WH Smiths for £1 🙂 ) and they take you on a tour of the reserve collection. It appears then. Now, this footage was shot in the 1990s. I doubt it would have been scrapped since then.

I heard the interview, it seemed live to me so its about as up to date as you will get. He said that a further 500,000 approx was needed. So still some way to go. He also said there was a good chance of the Vulcan at Waddington at the 2006 airshow.
two baby spits!!!!! 🙂
Funhouse, that is amazing work. Seems a shame to have to paint over that beautiful metal work.

[i]What all done in the air?
YES! they were all in the air! They were similar though. The Sea Harrier and the RAF Harrier both put on similiar displays (very good ones Im not denying) including a high speed pass, nod to the crowd etc. The Tornadoes also put on similar displays with perhaps the F3s being more energetic. These slots could have been filled with a little more variety.
Also, since we had 2 Harriers, it was good to see one was a Sea Harrier. To the general public (including me quite frankly) one Harrier can do pretty much the same things as any other Harrier. Having them in different colours – RAF GR7 in grey and RN Sea Harrier in blue is the only thing that sets them apart.
My thoughts too, the displays were pretty similar and I thought really it was a slot that could have been filled with a different aircraft type for some greater variety. One harrier in the air on display and then the other on the ground for photographs.
