If you've got a large, hard enough field, then no problem. At least two VULCANS and 1 COMET were landed at RAF HALTON many years ago. Small grass field!!!!
In fact three Vulcans were flown in to Halton. I remember seeing the second of the two when I was at the nearby primary school and the third aircraft put in an appearance during my secondary school's sports day.
It was rather more interesting than the sports!

PS Can't remember which 'marks' they were, but there was one example of each of the silver, white and full camouflage versions.
