Avro Vulcan XM655 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Avro Vulcan XM655
Avro Vulcan XM655 is one of three remaining taxiable Avro Vulcans. XM655 is currently owned by Wellesbourne Airfield and maintained by the 655 Maintenance & Preservation Society who keep the aircraft in a taxiable condition. ==History== XM655 was the antepenultimate Vulcan to be built, and is the youngest surviving example. XM655 initially flew with No.9 Squadron of the RAF, and was also operated by Nos. 44, 50 and 101 Squadrons. In 1984, XM655 was sold off to Roy Jacobsen who intended to keep her airworthy, but the costs proved prohibitive and also the runway was too short for it to take off, and XM655 was left to deteriorate. Title of XM655 then passed onto John Littler, owner of Wellesbourne Mountford Airfield, who intended to get her to a taxiable condition, but not airworthy. As well as MaPS maintaining it, the 150 City of Oxford Air Cadets helps to maintain it.
