Epic sight at the Finningley Royal Review in 1977. This 101 Sqdn example is now slowly deteriorating in the Californian sun at the Castle Air Museum. The other three Vulcans are XH558 of 27 Sqdn, XL446 of 35 Sqdn & XL426 of 617 Sqdn (but don't ask which is which!)

Here having just arrived for attention by AT(E)L, this Viscount was originally Austrian Airlines' OE-LAG, delivered in 2.60 as "Frans Schubert". Modified with the under-belly radome for radar development work by the RRE Pershore, she will perhaps be better remembered in the later RAE "Raspberry Ripple" colours...

US Navy 46645 built 1945, to N10013 registered May 1956, to CF-IZO registered June 1956, in 1983 reregistered C-FIZO. In 1990 it was sold to the Forsvarsmuseet at Oslo-Gardermoen and later it went to Bodø for display in the Norsk Luftfartsmuseum. As Norway never had the PBY-6A with the tall fin this aircraft was restored in 1994 with the smaller fin of the PBY-5A and painted as RAF FP535 to commemorate the real FP535 that served with 330 (Norwegian) Sqn and that had disappeared in Nov 1942 near Iceland
