The prototype Avro Vulcan displays to the Farnborough SBAC show crowd. First flew 30 August 1952, but here re-engined with A.S. Sapphires, whilst retaining the original pure 'straight delta' wing planform. Crashed 14 September 1958 at Syerston, Notts when it broke up in flight during an air display This photo is copyright © R.A.Scholefield, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
