resignation

With immediate effect I am tendering my resignation from all aspects of the Vulcan to the sky club and any activities to do with fund raising for the trust. I am doing this for personal reasons, the main being that I feel spending time and personal expense "begging" for money to keep people in salaries is somewhat futile given the prognosis that XH558 has only a limited lifespan in airworthy condition. It is my intention, in the next few days to advise the suppliers I am dealing with apropo recycling etc of my decision and also I shall inform supporters of said decision via various fora of same.
Best wishes for the future.


Regards.
David Lee-Williams

The above is a copy of an email sent out yesterday. Those who have access to the vulcan site can have more detailed information

Good for you!

It does seem that the "engineering and servicing" side of the operation has been run by a bunch of amateurs to say the least.

Best retire to your bunker LM! I feel there might be a few incomers coming your way!

echogolfc.d., was this a long-harboured view, or has some recent event prompted your decision?

Enjoy your motorsport activities and I'm sure that VttS appreciated all your fundraising work.
