Equally, shame on the MoD for selling arcraft to people who were incapable of keeping them in half-decent condition.

All the more reason why, in addition to the outstanding efforts of the Vulcan to the Sky campaign www.tvoc.co.uk , the 655 Maintenance and Preservation Society www.xm655.com and the Vulcan Restoration Trust www.xl426.com deserve all the support they can in order to keep these wonderful old aircraft in running condition.

During the Cold War, the V-bombers were a conerstone of the UK's deterrent policy. Future generations must be allowed not just to see, but also to hear them operating as they did back in the days when the UK could afford an air force.
