Valiant Refuelling Vulcan
Don't know if this has been seen before - it was in an album belonging to my father-in-law, so I scanned it.
Re: Valiant Refuelling Vulcan
Glad you did. It's a great pic. Almost certainly circa 1960. The Vulcan looks like a B.1 and expect the Valiant is from 214 Sqn. - the RAF's 1st tanker sqn.

Very nice , fond memories as a kid of sitting outside Waddington , logging Tin Triangles do circuits all day and slowly damaging my hearing !
Found the same pic online , both Boscombe Down machines used for In-Flight refueling tests :
