I was a,techie on Vulcans when they were white. They looked very good but to keep them looking pristine, a whole lot of wadpole and elbow grease was required to keep them so.
A Vulcan from Finningly arrived at Scampton one day and it had obviously been a victim of Doncaster’s industrial fall-out. It looks ghastly compared to ours.
The camouflaged ones did look more business like, I thought.
