Not presently - although a one-time flight option is being considered for XH558 as part of relocation in the UK.

Two others are in a condition to be able to taxi:
XL426 is in the UK at London Southend Airport (Note, that's not in London )
XM655 is in the UK at Wellesbourne Mountford Airfield and regularly stands-in for filming duties. It was also used by pilots of XH558 for familiarity training. This frame was subject to a recent over-shoot of the taxiway.

If anyone in the US wants to get up close to see one - the following are all on display:

XM606 - Bossier City, Louisiana - Barksdale Global Power Museum
XM605 - Atwater, California - Castle Air Museum
XM573 - Ashland, Nebraska - Strategic Air and Space Museum

as well as the following in Canade:
XL361 - Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador - CFB Goose Bay


So if we want to see a Vulcan at a future F1 race (vein attempt to keep this post on-topic ) - Omaha GP 2025!!!!
