    They are going to rebuild their Sea Vixen and fly it thats cool.

    No they are not don’t take any notice of Joe King he is a ****ing ****.

    The Sea Vixen at Newark will however go in their new hanger.

    As for any plan for moving her to Duxford what exactly would that achieve? I cannot believe the team that restored the Vulcan already there would be too chuffed at the idea

    Have to agree with this the Duxford Vulcan (XJ824) is one of only 2 Vulcan’s kept inside yet if they get 558 they would most likely scrap 824 and this is one of the best Vulcan’s around.

    If it goes anywhere I suggest Yorkshire Air Museum if they try to get rid of 824 at Duxford we should all contact them and send letters/e-mails and make it clear we do not want them to scrap a good Vulcan.

    Yes well said they should also get the Vulcan and Commet inside before they rot away.

    To be honest I cannot see the point of sending 603 to Manchester.

    Yorkshire air museum would be a better place for it however is it possible to dismantle a Vulcan and then rebuild and run it it would be a shame if moving 603 meant it was no longer able to run.

    No Lancman it would be very nice to see them taxing.

    Ok its not the same as flying no where near in fact but if its taxing or sitting gathering dust I know what I prefer.

    Hi andyxh558

    They have been trying to get 603 for a while hope they do as it seems BAE don’t care what happens to it.

    In the early 90s they were helping out the 603 club alot and their was talk that it might fly again then they lost all interest and health and safety had a field day about it being full of fuel.

    Well now it just sites their rotting and thats a big shame.

    How long can it last without a hanger ?

    Would it be able to fly to Kemble a someone on another forum claimed it would fall to bits if they ever try and fly it.

    Hi Vulcan903

    Why do you think that XL360 and Xm655 will be gone soon they are among the better examples.

    Does look a bit packed but its better than any of them being outside.

    It looks like its going the same way as the Blackpool Vulcan 🙁

    In 20 years we will not have many Vulcans left unless peole do something soon.
