Great images! I hate to see the Nimrods stand down.

The Vulcan images take me back to my youth when a Vulcan Display was flown several times at the Offutt AFB/SAC Headquarters Open House many years ago. It was simply the most amazing (and LOUD) aerial display I ever witnessed.

Vulcan looks fascinating, what a machine :-ok :-ok :-ok  So, "The Spirit of Great Britain" is the only flying example?
