the vulcan in the uk is scheduled to start test flights in august and they are just in the process of system checks and engine runs . they have had a lot of help from the CAA suprisingly and if all goes well it will be on the show circuit next year. because of the amount of equipment removed because it was not neccessary then the aircraft will weigh considerably less than it it when it last flew so a series of flight tests and crew training programmes are needed before it hits the show circuit. It is already booked for a fly past next year for the anniversary of the falklands .
I am starting a kit of the vulcan and built a mould to 1/13th scale however i have decided to enlarge it slightly so am just about to start building one to probably 1/11th scale.
i hope to donate money from every unit sold to the preservation of the vulcan in future.
