Contrary to earlier postings – and with Mr David Walton’s kind permission – there will be a Cold War Jet Thunder Day on Sunday 27th August 2017 at Bruntingthorpe Airfield, Bath Lane, Bruntingthorpe LE17 5QS.  

Some of the jewels of British aviation heritage will be on display and giving fast taxi demonstrations along the 2 mile runway.  The participants expected: Victor K2 XM715, 2 x Blackburn Buccaneers, English Electric Canberra WT333, Vickers VC-10K ZD241, Jet Provost, plus the Delphin.

Gates open from 9am. Tickets £15 pp at the Gatehouse on the day. Children under 12 free when accompanied by an adult bearing a valid ticket.

Ride in the cockpit on a fast taxi run!

Two Cyral Standard Bomb Winches are needed. Earn a seat in the Victor XM715 cockpit for a taxi run!
Teasin’ Tina needs help!! Some of the engine maintenance needed requires the engines to be removed. We urgently need to acquire a pair of bomb winches to assist the removal. If anyone or organisation can help we would be very grateful and offer a thrilling cockpit ride on one of our next aborted take off demonstrations.
