The Vulcan Collection

The Avro Vulcan Collection

The Vulcan makes for an impressive PSS model with its huge delta wing. Here are just a few examples of the type seen over the years.

	Matt Jones has built this impressive Avro Vulcan B2 from the South Herts Models plans (based on the original wind tunnel model drawings by A V Roe) and successfully converted it to PSS. Model spans 72" and has over 9 sq ft of wing area. It has an AUW of 9lb and hence a wing loading of just 16 oz/sq ft.
	Model is built up entirely from balsa and ply and the finished airframe is covered in 'anti-flash' white ProFilm. Matt uses 4 x Elevons and a Rudder to control this mighty delta!
	Close up of the nose section, also showing the cranked leading edge design of the final B.2 variant. Matt has finished this model in the colours of XH537, the RAF aircraft used as the test vehicle in the Skybolt rocket program.
