DHM1338. Vulcan B.2, 50 Sqn, Waddington by Ivan Berryman. The Vulcan B2 of 50 Squadron heads to Ascension Island from its base at Waddington, where it had been completely overhauled, including the fitting of a refuelling probe, which had to be found from various stores at Catterick, Goosebay in Labrador, Canada, and Wright-Patterson Airfield in Ohio, USA. The Vulcan would take part in the seven planned bombing missions during the Falklands campaign codenamed Operation Black Buck. Each mission would require a solo Vulcan Bomber (plus an airborne reserve Vulcan in case of problems with the first) to fly and bomb the Argentinean airfield at Port Stanley, requiring the support of 12 Handley Page Victor K2 tankers of 55 and 57 squadron on the outward journey and 2 Victors and a Nimrod on the return journey. Signed limited edition of 1150 prints. Image size 25 inches x 20 inches (64cm x 51cm)

DHM2544. Heyday by Steve Gibbs. The retirement of the mighty Vulcan from the Royal Air Force with all its attendant publicity tends to make us forget the heady days when even the smaller At Home or Station Air Day could rely on the Vulcan as one of its star attractions. In this picture artist Steve Gibbs has tried to create something of that simple carnival atmosphere of the provincial show by showing the scene at an Open Day at RAF Swinderby in Lincolnshire during the early 1980s. Avro Vulcan B2 XM575 does a dramatic touch-and-go in front of the distinctive hangers of the well-known former airfield. As the pilot applies full power, the smoke from the Olympus engines begins to build as the magnificent delta thunders into the air to demonstrate its astounding agility to a totally enthralled crowd of onlookers. Signed limited edition of 1000 prints. Overall size 20 inches x 16 inches (51cm x 41cm) Image size 16 inches x 11 inches (41cm x 28cm)
