Here’s a reminder of the details for Combined Ops. This will be a military event that will be held on the 14th and 15th of August (3 days to go):
IMPS and Headcorn Aerodrome have once again joined forces to present COMBINED OPS:
An exciting military weekend with classic aircraft at the historic World War Two Advanced Landing Ground of Lashenden Airfield, now operated as Headcorn Aerodrome, in Kent.
This year the show will include:
- Commemoration of the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain with a ‘fly-in’ of historic Military and Civilian aircraft, featuring a Battle of Britain Hurricane fighter and the iconic USAAF Mustang. Aircraft will be landing and taking off continuously during the two days of the show, and we anticipate owners of individual aircraft putting on small displays. Aircraft will be parked along the flight-line, and pilots will be encouraged to walk through the show ground and meet club members and the public.
- Plus the RED ARROWS will be displaying both days!
- Static Military vehicle displays, featuring the vehicles owned by the members of the club. There will be themed displays, such as Vietnam, REME, Fighting Rovers, etc, as well as members’ individual vehicles. Area Secretaries will be welcome to organise Area Displays.
- Living History and Re-enactment Groups are being invited to put on static displays as well as arena demonstrations. Invitations are being made to specific groups who reflect an appropriate image for a family show.
- Arena events including the usual vehicle drive rounds, tank and armoured vehicle demonstrations, and re-enactments.
- Military stalls to service everyone’s needs from vehicle parts to uniforms and books.
- Parachute jumping by the local Parachute club.
- A free Air Museum on site
- Displays of privately owned Cockpits.
- Steven Bungay signing his authoritive book on the Battle of Britain ‘The Most Dangerous Enemy’.
