I've still yet to hear a satisfactory explanation (or indeed any sort of explanation at all) as to why on earth either Duxford or Cosford should want another Vulcan, unrepresentative of a Service example after its conversion for operation on the civil register, as both museums are in the process of building new multi-million £ facilities to house their present Vulcans.
