==Surviving aircraft== {{Main|List of surviving Avro Vulcans}} [[File:XH558Display.jpeg|thumb|XH558 performs its first post-restoration public display on 5 July 2008]] Several Vulcans survive, housed in museums in both the United Kingdom and North America (USA and Canada). One Vulcan, [[Avro Vulcan XH558|XH558 (G-VLCN) ''Spirit of Great Britain'']], was used as a display aircraft by the RAF as part of the [[Vulcan Display Flight]] until 1993. After being grounded, it was later restored to flight by the Vulcan To The Sky Trust and displayed as a civilian aircraft from 2008 until 2015, before being retired a second time for engineering reasons. In retirement, XH558 is to be retained at its base at [[Doncaster Sheffield Airport]] as a taxiable aircraft, a role already performed by two other survivors, [[Avro Vulcan XL426|XL426]] (G-VJET) based at [[Southend Airport]], and [[Avro Vulcan XM655|XM655]] (G-VULC), based at [[Wellesbourne Mountford Airfield]]. XJ823, a B.2, can be seen at the [[Solway Aviation Museum]] at [[Carlisle Lake District Airport]]. XM607 is currently being restored at RAF Waddington, where it has been gate guardian since being retired. XM594 is on display at the Newark Air Museum, Newark, Nottinghamshire, England.
