Vulcan survivors

Postby Sploosher » Tue Jun 24, 2014 9:11 pm

after coming back from my trip to Scotland, and taking in 3 Vulcans ( Sunderland, East Fortune and Carlisle,I thought I would ask you all, how many of the survivors over here have you seen........... :D

Here are the ones I have seen over the years
XH 558 Bruntingthorpe Airfield, Leics. and Robin Hood Airport
XJ 823 Carlisle Airport, Cumbria
XJ 824 Imperial War Museum, Duxford
XL 319 North East Aircraft Mus., Sunderland
XM 594 Newark Air Museum, Notts.
XM 597 Museum of Flight, East Fortune
XM 607 RAF Waddington, Lincs.
XM 612 Aviation Museum, Norwich Airport
XM 655 Wellesbourne Airport, Warwick

Hopefully I will get to see XL426 at Southend in August when I go to felixstowe :)
