Vulcan To The Sky

The Vulcan to the Sky Trust has successfully purchased an Avro Vulcan XH558 and is all set to begin restoration of this last iconic representative of the Cold War period.
The Vulcan, Victor and Valiant were the mainstay of Britain’s Cold War defence policy for over 30 years. Under the professional guidance of Dr Robert Pleming, Felicity Irwin and the Vulcan to the Sky team, Vulcan XH558 has received a £2.73m grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to restore the aircraft to flight and deliver the Cold War history to the widest possible audience.
To keep up-to-date with all the latest fundraising events, and to find out how you can get involved in this restoration project, visit the Vulcan to the Sky Trust website.
