Save the Vulcan
 
Only 3 days left to keep this bird in the air. Come on, do your bit, you know it makes sense!

Apologies if there is a thread about this elsewhere.

Was stripping parts from XJ823 at Carlisle last week for this bird. It's a great cause as anyone who's had the pleasure of seeing it airborne will happily testify.

Indeed Gilly, let's hope it will stay in the air. We've already lost the Concorde and the Harrier.

If anyone needs any further convincing then here's a good reason

Cheers McQ.

indeed. Rooney's small change could keep the Vulcan flying!

Hope you're well mate. See you at Duxford redux next year!
