Delivered in September 1962 and serving 83 Sqdn, Scampton Wing, 27 & 617 Sqdns, 230 OCU and 50 Sqdn/Waddington Wing, this Vulcan made its last flight to Southend for preservation in December 1986. Registered as G-VJET in 1987 in the hope of a return to display flying, the aircraft is no longer airworthy but is maintained by the Vulcan Restoration Trust in taxiable condition This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
