When will XH558 fly again?

Question

Hi, I ws just wondering when XH558 is likely to take to the skies again

Answer 1

currently being re-built to flying condition at bruntingthorpe uk she should be ready in 2007 and will be flying in the falklands memorial next year

Answer 2

All it takes is enthusiasm and distinctive money. there is even talk approximately Air France restoring a Concorde to flying condition so something is a possibility. there's a Vulcan, a Comet, and a Concorde on show on the Scottish Museum of Flight merely off the A1 close to Haddington, East Lothian. What a fly-previous those 3 might make!

Answer 3

Is schedule to fly at the Bruntingthorpe run upday 27th May 07, tickets £10 at the gate on the day

Answer 4

The aim is to have it ready to fly by 17 June 2007, but the usual problems - mainly financial - make this uncertain.

Answer 5

Not able to answer the question, but looking forward to seeing her, as the Vulcan gives the most impressive airshow flypast, especially as she does a slow bank turn away from the crowd.
Wish some of my tax's went towards keeping our heritage going, rather than being wasted!

Answer 6

last i heard she would be flying for the falklands flypast on the 17th june. they have alot of airshows booked for this year before then but thats the date they are aiming for. this website has a calender and alot of the latest news on the restoration - http://www.tvoc.co.uk/

Sadly, the project relies on donations so if you can spare a few pounds you can help make it happen. As to the progress, go to; http://www.camvista.com/england/other/vulcantothesky01. and you can watch it happen in real time.
