About

Join us at our Vulcan Summer Taxi-Run and see Vulcan XL426 blast down the London Southend Airport runway on Saturday 7 September.

Viewing will be from the Trust's exclusive visitor area giving an uninterrupted view across the airport and unrivalled photographic opportunities.

XL426 will make two taxi-runs down the runway. The second pass will be at high-speed and the Vulcan will then taxi back, giving a superb close-up view as the Vulcan taxies in and shuts down her engines.

Gates will open at 11.30 am and the taxi-run will start at 1.00 pm.
