Goodbye Vulcan: Blighty's nuclear bomber retires for the last time

I live next to the XM655 in Warwickshire, not airborne yet but they're hopeful it may be one day.

For the last two weekends running both XM655 could be seen an the ground with the XH558 flying over head! brilliant! and a once in a lifetime experience I fear.

We have often had flypasts from not only XH558 but also other wartime aircraft, Now andd again I've seen old bi-planes, a Hurricane, Spitfire, Mustang and a Lancaster, Wellesbourne Airfield where the XM655 stands used to be used an old training airfield for Canadian bomber crews.
