XS458, a Lightning T 5 is beautifully preserved at Cranfield. It makes an occasional high speed run down the runway. Some of the other Lightnings are (I think) airworthy with Mike Beachy-Head and his Thunder City operation at Capetown.

Vulcan XH558 made its last public display at Cranfield and spent some time on the ground there. Concorde also visited for one of the displays - it made a superb sight as it flew over the house at about 1500' but I can't remember if it actually landed.
