Re: Warton Aircraft UAVs + Visiting Aircraft
In connection with the 2015 Southport Air show as well as having The Red Arrows based at Warton, we also had The Royal Navy Historic Flight Swordfish based there everyday when the crew returned from the Southport Show the Pilot entertained with a mini display.
On the Swordfish's departure back to Yeovilton we were treated to a five minute low level display with pull ups tight turns, all in all a super show. Below is some interesting facts about the Swordfish.

Re: Warton Aircraft UAVs + Visiting Aircraft
I think its appropriate that the Vulcan will be the last aircraft I record as a visitor to Warton, unless The Concorde makes a return visit to the skies over Warton (1972)
