Since October 2007, enthusiasts across the United
Kingdom have basked in the raw power and agility of
Avro Vulcan XH558 - but all knew that its time back in the
air was limited. Since then millions have thrilled at the
sight and the sound of the incredible mighty delta and
rallied to the call to help keep it flying. This year is XH558’s
swansong, as it is finally retired and begins a new life as
the focus of a heritage and educational centre.

As a tribute to the most challenging and complex return-
to-flight project ever, FlyPast magazine presents a unique
84-page souvenir devoted to a much-loved icon: Vulcan
XH558. Created with the assistance of the Vulcan to the
Sky Trust, the story of the world’s only civilian operated
V-Bomber is revealed.
