    The Vulcan Operation Company desperately needs funds to get XH558 in the air again for the 2009 season and money to pay bills. Anyone who fells as though they could spare a few pounds, please visit the web site to help keep this magnificent bird in the air.

    The web site does seem to be playing up at the moment though.

    No apologies necessary, I missed that-all the more publicity the better.

    PLEASE donate a little money to help keep XH558 flying in these difficult times, they are desperately short of money and need help now.

    i saw a program on this on a discovery channel recently, subsequently i went and found all 21 existing vulcan airframes in the world on google earth, with the help of a website that lists all their locations.
