Preserved VC10s
Since the downsizing of the 101 squadron fleet and the final flight of a VC10 in 2013, many airframes have found new homes with museums. Fortunately there is a good collection of complete airframes, including two live ones, and fuselage sections in preservation so that we can enjoy the sight and sound of a VC10 for several more years. This page is just an overview of the survivors, for more information about the aircraft, click on the registration. For information about the various museums (if it is not on the page about the airframe), see the links page. For more bits of VC10 that survived a bit longer than the full airframe, see the Bits and Pieces page.
