And if the Vulcan-to-the-sky organisation wants an ex-Vulcan pilot who will fly for 0.01p per hour, they need only call me!
And that is how I would have expected
every ex-Vulcan pilot/crew to have reacted to get the seldom chance to fly the tin triangle again. Appropriate expenses covered so as not to be out of pocket and that's that! I wonder how much the crew did get ? It's not that I would begrudge wages to any full-time crew, but as this is an endeavour supported by donations it seems only logical that 'in-kind' help would be gladly given in general.
That people were getting pretty decent wages (but not more than £60,000!) is hard to stomach when funding is so tight does sound a bit like a gravy train to quote a previous poster.
