Avro Vulcan B2 (XM594)

 aircraft on display  Add category

Registration: XM594
Construction Number: SET58

In pretty good condition having been repainted over the course of three years in the mid 90s, her paint work is now suffering once more and could do with some sprucing up. Until a few years ago, she was electrically live and regularly powered up but Health & Safety guidelines put paid to this when the museum's staff expanded to the point of coming under the aegis of the H & S villainy. Damn shame. The cockpit is in excellent condition and opened up at weekends for visitors with a small entrance fee. The aircraft was owned by one of the Newark Air Museum's trustees but in early 2004 he sold it to the Lincolnshire Lancaster Association. The LLA have placed the aircraft on loan to the Museum for the foreseeable future.
