After the success of last year's fly-in, this year's effort will be even bigger and better. To commemorate V.E. day, some fantastic aircraft will be dropping in to the airport, with an opportunity to get up close. Below is a list of some of the aircraft that have now confirmed - but please do note that all events are subject to weather conditions. Doors open at 09:00 hours, with aircraft coming and going as they please. The last departure will take place around 16:30 hours. We do have a small "RESERVE" list in case any do cancel upon the event date.
The aircraft may land if they wish for the public to view and there is a small landing fee.
There will either be a barbeque on the day or the Airport Café has promised some culinary delights.
We would love for you to participate in, what we are hoping, will become a regular fundraising event for a well-deserving cause. The Welsh Air Ambulance attends 1000s of emergencies yearly and would be grateful for your support.
New for 2024 - Audio Tour
