Vulcan farewell

Vulcan farewell
Vulcan XH558 came back to its birthplace at Woodford this afternoon for an emotional farewell as this is its last season in flight. Thousands turned out around the former airfield and factory to see this wonderful plane put in a couple of flypasts. Most people were very quiet as it headed off over Alderley Edge and a legend was gone.

Is this the V bomber which was kept in flight / restored to flight by enthusiasts?

Yes, that's the one. It will lose its airworthiness certification for good later this year.
