After what seemed like some braindead idea from a Manchester Public House landlord to aquire the Vulcan from Mr Bateson at EGNH, to sit in his garden where his drinkers would be able to shade themselves from the Sun has finally fallen through,
The BBC north West news service anounced today that Mr Bateson has now agreed for some scapman to remove the A/c from the site it has occupied for many years, Whilst this A/c has been a wonderful reminder of the ability of the British engineers and the RAF to have and fly such superb looking pieces of kit, it is sad to see this sort of end befall this Vulcan.
Mr Bateson must have spent at least 50pence trying to preserve it, the poor old girl has stood on flat tyres and knackered landing struts for at least the last 12 years with the cockpit windows missing for about the same length of time. any Ppruners out there flown this craft?
Sad end!
