Great news Chris, shame the certificate doesn't have a "low flying in lakes element to it"!!

According to the website,

www.tvoc.co.uk/engineering.asp

The Vulcan is now in the process of engine testing and ground runs...........so it looks as if it may fly before the months out,anyone going down?

Copied over from another forum Today

"Today the Vulcan X558 that has been restored at Bruntinthorpe did its
fast taxi and nose in the air trials.
Apparently tomorrow there is a press conferance starting at 07.00 and
there is a good chance of the first flight since restoration.
Bruntinthorpe in Notamed for the next 2 weeks at 3 miles from centre of
runway and up to 3000ft whilst trials continue."

Hopefully someone will have some photos online somewhere!
