It is a good thing there is no attempt to get a Mk1 Victor airborne, in the early days it was almost impossible even with the full might of V bomber support. I believe the hydraulic system was the main problem, especially the leading edge flaps. They were subsequently fixed in position but the hydraulics were always tricky, peaking pumps came the cry.
Yes it would be great to get a Victor airborne again but CAA and insurance?????.
