  • She is a 100% real Avro Vulcan... not a replica,
  • Her huge whole cockpit was preserved and now her gauges have been electronically reawakened to allow you to fly her in the beautiful surroundings at Welshpool,
  • Designed by a former Rolls Royce software engineer and pilot,
  • You'll fly sitting in the Captain's real Martin Baker ejection seat,
  • Use her real dual control joystick, throttles, rudder pedals and buttons,
  • Start up her 4 massively powerful Olympus jet engines,
  • Outside she has an epic 25ft wide 220° curved display creating the sensation of real flight using the latest Augmented Reality (AR),
  • Exclusively, press her operational nuke release button,
  • All the smells, all the sounds,
  • Incredibly you'll even control the famous Vulcan howl!


After being shown how to handle her by our pilot qualified instructors you'll take control! Flying a Vulcan is a team effort therefore you can add on 2 other crew members at checkout who will can take the back seats to help or simply observe you fly a real Vulcan. If you're feeling confident you can even add on your own Co-Pilot and our instructor will leave the ejector seat to them, but will stand behind you to give guidance.


Sessions could involve: Following checklists to start the engines, taking off in the Vulcan listening to her famous howl. seeing the beautiful countryside of the UK or even the Himalayan mountains around Everest. Perhaps for the daring even attempt a landing at Gibraltar or Ascension Island is on the books? And then shutting down the Olympus engines before putting her to sleep.


You're the Captain, so grab the throttles and get ready to give it some howl, book now for you or someone special!
