We have received further contact today from BBMF concerning the flypasts for this event; possible change on the Saturday to Spitfire (depends on Lancaster flight tests) & now a Hurricane for the Sunday.

A quick bump for our event this weekend; BBMF flypasts confirmed with just a mix of the fighters; lots of items relating to the Shackleton and Hastings – including free access to both aircraft for people attending the event.

Website updated!
