Not heard much on the planned museum at Walney for quite sometime, all i know is that they had been given a Tornado GR1 and a Hawker Hunter and that land adjacent to the airfield had been earmarked for use.
Will have to pop down and take some pics when we get some decent weather. Just wondering if the move to Morecambe will still happen or will the museum be staying put?
I seem to remember one year hearing on the grapevine that Old Warden got a B1 B flypast, totally by accident, was this true? As for chicksands, i only went to one event there, can any one remeber which year clues are….
Clear blue skies, Red Arrows display, Tucano display, Tornado GR1 fly-bys, F-15x 2 fly-bys and nimrod fly-bys, i would think maybe early 90’s but cant remember the exact year.
I count myself lucky to have been able to go to the Clophill fete once, what a great event, heard a B52 cruising about above the low cloud and had the living daylights scared out of me by the Dutch airforce display team.
Sounds like June 17th 1995 when we were treated to the following…..
Mr T? I wouldn’t of thought he would fit into the cockpit of the P-40 and then theirs all that extra weight with the gold etc etc. Nice to see Hangar 11 filling the gap though the RAC are bringing a Jungmiester and Magister.
Lots of aircraft visiting too. Also 5 x Hunter sorties, 5 x JP sorties and 4 x P-51 sorties planned so i’m imagining a few fly-bys. Also Scandanavian HF’s A-26 / P-51 / Hunter and Vampire present.
Just spent a good 30 mins going through all the pages of this thread and then thought i could add to this 😎 😎
These were at Kirkbride airfield in Cumbria last Sunday………
