§ Sir Nicholas BonsorTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what plans he has to allow the Vulcan XH558 to fly at any of the events commemorating the 75th anniversary of the RAF; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. AitkenThere are no plans to include the Vulcan in the RAF flypast for the royal review at RAF Marham on 1 April 1993, which will consist of current operational RAF aircraft, with Battle of Britain memorial flight aircraft providing a historical perspective for the service.
However, once the future of the Vulcan has been determined, it will be possible to consider the form of a farewell flypast.
