EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Avro Vulcan B.2 XL318, a legendary aircraft of the Royal Air Force, as it stands proudly at Andrews Air Force Base in the United States. The Vulcan, a iconic British Cold War-era bomber, is adorned with the distinctive markings of No.617 (Dambusters) Squadron. In this image, XL318 is equipped with an inert Blue Steel missile, a nuclear-capable weapon that was a key component of the Vulcan's arsenal during its operational service. During the summer of 1969, XL318 was flown daily to Dulles International Airport in Washington D.C. for a series of awe-inspiring displays on the 14th, 15th, 17th, and 19th of August. These shows provided the American public with a rare opportunity to witness the power and majesty of the Avro Vulcan firsthand. Now, more than five decades later, XL318 is preserved in the RAF Museum Hendon, a testament to the rich history of aviation and the extraordinary aircraft that have graced the skies. This photograph serves as a reminder of a bygone era in military aviation, when the Vulcan represented the cutting edge of technology and the pinnacle of British aeronautical engineering.
