Beautiful aeroplane. My mum's cousin used to work on these at RAF Woodford just outside Stockport. Not sure if any are left flying. Such a shame, they made a great noise and scared the crap out of the enemy as they could come in under radar......!!

They really were frighteningly beautiful weren't they.  There's only one left flying

If I rightly recall this is the first British bomber with nuclear attack capability.
