The only serviceable flying Vulcan Aircraft in the world.
On the 18th October 2007 S/No.XH558 did it's first take off.
Kearsley's was involved in overhauling, reconditioning, and
the repairing of some of the major hydraulic component assemblies
of this aircraft, including the landing gear. |

Letter
of thanks from Vulcan to the Sky Trust
26 October 2007
Hello to you all,
As you will probably know by now, on Thursday 18th October
2007, XH558 had her first flight since 1993, when she flew
into Bruntingthorpe, it has taken a long time, a lot of effort
and a lot of money, but without your help and support, be it
in the fields of technical, engineering, component supply and
other other areas, to many to mention, this would not have
been possible.
I would like to take this opportunity to
thank you personally, and on behalf of the Project, for all
the support you have
given us over the years. There are still more test flights
to be carried out before we finally get the ‘Permit to
fly, these will take place over the next couple of months.
We all now need to look to the future, how we are going to
keep XH558 flying on the show circuit, over the next ten to
fifteen years. Hopefully, I will be able to rely on the same
help and support you have already given the project
I will be contacting you in the near future to discuss this
ongoing support.
In the meantime please take a few moments out, appreciate
the moment and take credit for your part in the return of XH558
back to the air.
Sincerely,
Colin.
Colin Marshall
