Avro 698 Vulcan B.2
Reg: XM597 photos
Serial #:
SET61
Airline: United Kingdom - Royal Air Force (RAF)
Photo Date: Aug 18, 2021
Uploaded: Sep 20, 2021
Other Location - East Fortune, United Kingdom

Notes:

Preserved at the Museum of Flight, Scotland. Only by walking around this airframe did I get to see just how small the wheels/tyres on this bomber are in comparison to it's size. This airframe joined the RAF in 1963, is one of only two Vulcans to drop weapons in actual conflict, and made it's last flight, to East Fortune for preservation in 1984.
