The days when we had a real air force in the UK, eh?

Today's functioning V-bombers number but a mere brace (655 and 426) - but with 558 due to fly probably next year.

Was having a look at 655 today at Wellesbourne Mountford - the chaps are looking after her very well indeed and the next ground runs and low speed taxying will be going ahead next spring as planned, with the usual nosewheel-off high speed runs later in 2006.

And Jacko, you've missed a very important number indeed off your list...

101

How could you have missed it out??
