Modified Seafang or Spiteful mated to a race tuned Rolls Royce Eagle 22 with contra-props, and then make an assault on the World piston engined speed record for GB.!

Thanks for the heads up. Doesn’t say where it’s hoped to keep it if they are successful, but presumably it would be St Mawgan airfield!?

Rob

The trustees felt, however, that we couldn’t stand by and see her go elsewhere or, worst case, to scrap

Shame a few other museums didn’t employ that very philosophy before scrapping significant airframes, even when sat right on their own doorstep!

I’ll gladly make a small donation to help things along with the Jav!

Rob

That is fantastic news and also a relief that its been saved for preservation. Well done to JAM for securing the future of another cold war warrior!

Rob

Thanks Keith. Nice to see you posting on here again!

Rob

I remember back in the late eighties that Tom Stoddart and crew used to keep her partly live. Not sure if that’s still the case now but it’s great to see the Vulcan still looking well cared for!

Seafuryfan, did you by any chance get any pics of Canberra T.4 WE188, as she’s an ex Bassingbourn 231 OCU bird?

Rob

Any chance you could share some with an appreciative audience, bleeming?
