One of my earliest Kodachromes, at the Battle of Britain Day. This Scampton Wing Vulcan, still resplendent here in the original glossy camouflage, was delivered on 19.7.62 and lost on 11.8.78 when it crashed practicing for a display at Glenview NAS, Chicago. Note the Isaacs Fury II 7/10ths scale replica G-ASCM in the foreground

Two old classics, both V-Jets! VRT's Vulcan waits silently for its next engine run while the magnificent 707 VH-XBA returns from one of its test flights, two days before finally heading down under (ok, this is the original 1959 c/s, it wasn't until the next scheme in 1961 that she really became a V-Jet). Oh yes, and the experimental predecessor of the Vulcan was the Avro 707...

With its camouflage paint peeling away from the original white anti-flash finish, this old Vulcan sits forlornly on the Manston fire school dump. Delivered in 5.58 as a Mk1 to 617 Sqdn at Scampton. On receiving Blue Steel air-launched missiles in 1961, the Dam Busters reformed as 50 Sqdn on the other side of Lincoln at Waddington and XH483 was converted to a B.1A. Flew to Manston 9.69 and was all gone by 1977

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!)

Having received a permit to fly just two days earlier, this was the first flying display by a Vulcan for 15 years. What a stroke of genius to fly it in formation with PA474, the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Lancaster - probably the two most significant RAF bombers in the air together
