This is one aircraft that i dont see that oftern and is the first thing you will see when driving up the drive way to the museaum.I was told that this aircraft has 14 fuel tanks and 28 fuel pumps which allows the poilots to ballance the fuel when in mid flight.The vulcon has a camera that should be used for bombing but as the human eye was more accurate than the camera so they never used it.It hold 10 tons of bombs and about 36/39 tons of fuel and when the vulcon is fully loaded it weights in at 90 tons

What a beast! Would love to see it up-close and in person. Good job with the wide frame.
