Cannot feel like agreeing with the comments.... Scampton, Waddington etc are NOT on the list
The route for Saturday's tour has been posted up.
From the VTTS website.
Quote:
This Saturday afternoon 29th September, providing weather conditions and aircraft serviceability allow, XH558 will take off on a 3-hour sortie to commemorate Sixty Glorious Years of the Avro Vulcan as she makes a tour of various airports near to sites that played a significant part in their development or service life.
The route
1. Doncaster
- Bitteswell
2. Coventry Airport
3. Birmingham Airport
4. RAF Cosford
5. Gloucester (Staverton)
- Cheltenham
6. Filton
7. Cardiff Airport
8. St. Athan
9. Ross-on-Wye (Memorial)
10. RAF Halton
So, no Woodford, Farnborough, Waddington, Scampton, Bruntingthorpe; places I would thought had a larger claim to having a more significant role than some mentioned above.
Anyway, there you have it.
