 The bomber is to be an attraction at a pub in Tameside |
A pub landlord who bought a Vulcan bomber on the internet has until the end of the week to move it from its current home at Blackpool Airport. Chris Ollerenshaw, from Dukinfield, Greater Manchester, bid �15,102.03 for the former RAF bomber on the auction site e-Bay in November.
The plane had been stationed at the airport for 21 years.
The new owner plans to keep it behind his pub, but he has not yet received planning permission for the move.
Mr Ollerenshaw hopes the bomber, which last saw service when it was on standby on Ascension Island in the Falklands War, will be an attraction at his pub, The Snipe Inn.
He is now appealing for someone to offer him a temporary storage site.
