The Vulcan Bomber XH558 has made its flight from RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire to its new home in South Yorkshire - Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield. The move is due to the closure of the RAF site in 2012.

The Vulcan XH558 took its first flight on 25 May 1960. It was originally built to carry nuclear weapons but was only ever used as a nuclear deterrent. The bomber retired from service in 1993 and is the only one left of the 134 that were built for the Royal Air Force.

The Vulcan XH558 has distinctive Concorde-like 'Delta Wings'.

The Vulcan XH558 was flown by Martin Withers DFC. He had previously flown the aircraft during the Falklands crisis, bombing Port Stanley Airstrip.

Martin Withers DFC said, "She's a lovely aeroplane to fly. She's powerful and manoeuvrable. You can't really see much out of the window but it's nice. The biggest pleasure that we get from this aircraft is the joy that it gives to people when they see it."

The Vulcan has travelled throughout the country in previous years appearing in air shows. The owners, Vulcan to the Sky Trust have said that they need to raised £225,000 by April to pay for the air show season. If the money is not raised the owners fear the flight to Robin Hood Airport could be its last.
