Abstract
- The article reports on efforts to keep the British Vulcan Cold War bomber plane in operation. The Vulcan to the Sky Trust is spearheading efforts to restore the XH558 plane. The Trust's chief executive officer (CEO) Robert Pleming states that lack of cash is hindering the project and if funding problems are not solved, the Vulcan may end up getting grounded. Pleming adds that 2012 is a crucial time for the plane because of plans to use the aircraft to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
