Thanks Ginge:)

If you mean XH558, no. It most probably wont fly again unless a sizeable amount of cash is found to keep the operation running.

There was a fundraising effort last weekend by the XH558 team where they were visiting all 14(?) complete vulcans in the UK....by car. I wonder if it was this that you heard,

I thought the Vulcan at Woodford had been scrapped?

Due to be scrapped later this year. Parts are being removed for refurb so XH558 can have enough spares and I think an engine has been reserved for XM655 at Wellesbourne.
