The Vulcan people put out a release in December about running a Harrier: pretty tricky, it seems. http://www.vulcantothesky.org/news/151/82/Could-a-... Hope we are all contributing to keep the last flying Vulcan in the air. Only two more years of airframe time left before the last big bird has to retire.
I think they have been working on extending the airframe life during the winter service. Oh and on the engines note. They have 8 engines in total and RR have them out every 20 hours to ensure that they are in perfect nick. I wonder if RR would source new engines if they used them all up. Or would they get them from another operable Vulcan.
For Vulcan fans a short clip of one in flight I took at Goodwood Revival 2009:
