Epic sight at the Finningley Royal Review in 1977. This 101 Sqdn example is now slowly deteriorating in the Californian sun at the Castle Air Museum. The other three Vulcans are XH558 of 27 Sqdn, XL446 of 35 Sqdn & XL426 of 617 Sqdn (but don't ask which is which!)

Above all in India this was the target I most wanted to shoot. Nicely preserved and looking like it's ready for another VIP mission, this was one of three delivered to India in Oct 1966. V642 was recently rediscovered in Lucknow (that is what I call Luck Now!) preserved sat the zoo and V643 crashed on landing at Jorhat in Assam on 5.11.77
