For 4 sec in 1955 when it did a barrel roll it earned the title of " the greatest aircraft of all time". Every time an F22 pulls a minimum radius turn it does the same thing.

A team of air cadets from 1122 (Marmion) Squadron ATC will be cycling 30 miles on the 12th of June, from their squadron HQ to DCAE Cosford in Shropshire to raise money for XH558 - you can help support them here! -

@xoio For the first time in ten flights since the completion of her restoration, there was a technical problem which prevented XH558 taking off. The problem was a fault on a voltage regulator on the alternator on No.3 engine. Instead XH558 demonstrated an aborted take off at full power on a wet runway, which provided spectators with not only the sound but also the spectacular sight of the Vulcan in the midst of a huge plume of spray in the sunshine.
