Does anyone know roughly what time on Saturday the Vulcan flying display will be?

I have never seen the Vulcan flying and time is running out!

I've been looking for the timings for the displays at Yeovilton & Swansea and the flypast at Penarth but can't find anything.

ETA - I thought I saw somewhere that its transiting tomorrow so could do with times.

Estimated display time at Yeovilton is 1245-1345

Extract from Yeovilton Air Day Press Release:
The Avro Vulcans final appearance at RNAS Yeovilton Air Day on Saturday 11th July will include a special 'V-Jet Formation' flypast.

The famed 'V-Bomber' will be joined by Naval Aviation Ltd's de Havilland Sea Vixen and the Norwegian Air Force Historical Flight's two de Havilland Vampires to present an exclusive four-ship classic British jets flight.

The formation will be a unique spectacle with the Sea Vixen leading, a Vampire on each of its wingtips and the Vulcan coming in behind.

Its Air Day farewell will be a sad occasion for many, but this classic jets link-up will give the Vulcan a magnificent send-off.

Looked good on arrival this afternoon - although the French Navy Rafaels and Etendards tried hard to upstage her!
