On Thursday 13th August, the RAF BBMF, along with Spitfires of a number of private Spitfire operators, will commemorate the 75th Anniversary of Adlertag or ‘Operation Eagle Attack’ with a special flypast from Humberside Airport.
Up to 13 Spitfires will launch and split into 3 sections of aircraft to fly over as many villages, towns and cities as fuel will allow to enable the public to see and hear these wonderful historic aircraft and remember the sacrifices given by the young men of Fighter Command 75 years ago.

Do we know if the BBMF aircraft will land at Humberside before this flypast. Assuming launch time from Humberside will be 16.00 local ?
