One aircraft has dominated the airshow season so far ? Vulcan B2 XH558, making a triumphant return and bringing in the crowds like nothing else for years.

The Vulcan features strongly in our unbeatable show coverage this month, starting with our 16-page Farnborough special on page 39. Cover photo by Allan Burney
