Doncaster (Robin hood) may close in October

Got this e-mail form the Trust today, not good news for Doncaster airport or 558

3 July 2022: Doncaster Sheffield Airport Announcement

You may have heard the news today that the Board of Doncaster Sheffield Airport (DSA) has begun a review of strategic options for the Airport. The review follows lengthy deliberations by the Board of DSA which has reluctantly concluded that aviation activity on the site may no longer be commercially viable.

We know that you - the loyal supporters of Vulcan XH558 and VTST - will be concerned by this news, and the implications for the future of the aircraft.

As you know we have in place an agreement for parking our aircraft at DSA, together with access for our staff, volunteers and visitors. We will of course be working with the airport to establish, as quickly as possible, what this announcement means for us. We will update you on this when we know more.
Thank you for your continued support for Vulcan XH558.


Andy
