Hi Shuck,

Here's a photo of '563 that David Thompson has sent me, he says "The Vulcan is owned by the same guy who has the Bucc , JP and Valiant cockpits at Inverness . 'Google' Ken Ward and Bilsdale , North Yorkshire. This was taken when on display at Teesside Airport during the annual RCAF reunion on the 2 June but now sadly back into open storage and out of sight airside."

Hi Mike, Thanks for all the information, I had assumed XH563 had been sold after seeing photos of her being towed across the River Tees in 2017. It was mentioned that she was eventually moving to Scotland.

Cheers, Steve
