The only flying Vulcan in the world banks away from RAF Finningley (now Robin Hood Airport) on the first leg of its Cold War Tour.

Is this the one which an enthusiast group was making flyable?

Yes, the only one flying these days but it costs something like £2 million a year to keep it in the air! So they need commercial sponsorship as well as enthusiast support to do it.

That's BIG bucks, thanks. Must be magnificent to see and hear. Makes steam preservation seem reasonable...

I've only seen a V bomber once, probably late 60s, on the ground in the distance at RAAF Richmond.
