(in article ):

XH558 is a charity trust so all the money raised can only be spent on XH558,


I understand this and wasn't suggesting that the Trust should hand over its
cash to other projects, even if it could do so legally.

Rather I was trying to point out that a high-profile, high-cost - but
ultimately very limited - endeavour like keeping a Vulcan flying will tend to
divert scarce resources from other, less ambitious projects in the field of
aviation history.

I don't mean to sound churlish. I just feel that the sums of money involved
would yield much greater value in the long run if spent in other, less
dramatic, ways.
