The Falklands conflict led to the Vulcan being used for the first time in anger in 25 years of RAF service; 44, 50 and 101 Sqn. aircraft were involved in “Operation Corporate” with five crews selected, two from 50 Sqn., one each from 44 Sqn. and 101 Sqn., plus others from the disbanded 9 Sqn. My painting portrays the mighty Vulcan XM607 at altitude during the work up period prior to active operations. During the Falklands War XM607, piloted by Martin Withers, flew there and back from the Ascension Islands non-stop, covering a staggering 7,500 miles; the flight lasted 15 hours 45 minutes – at the time, the longest combat flight in history. The Vulcan was refuelled by Victor tankers five times on the outward journey and once on the return journey.
