The Vulcan team has been undertaking preparatory work ahead of the main flying life extension project to ensure they can continue the more costly elements just as soon as funds are secure.
This work (in stages one and two of the wing modification share issue) has already resulted in an accurate 3D computer model of the wings where strengthening is required, and the production of the formers that will be needed on which to shape the complex curved skins – a project being undertaken by Beagle Technology Group in Christchurch, Dorset.
