We endeavour to keep the aircraft in operable condition and to help us ‘exercise’ the aircraft we have two open days per year where any aircraft that are serviceable will carry out full power taxi runs along our main runway. This makes for an incredible spectacle and an ideal opportunity to get close to the aircraft.
The next scheduled Cold War Jets Open Day is Sunday 26th August 2012. The days are open to the public and gates open typically at 9am, with the first taxi at approx 11am. Admittance is £15 for adults, £10 for OAP’s and disabled, with accompanied children under 16 years old free of charge, all payable on the gate on the day.
Please note that for this event only, there will be an added attraction of a cavalcade of up to 500 Honda Goldwing Motorcycles on the proving ground tracks. The timing of this is still to be agreed, but watch this space for more information!
If you want more information on entry or about trading on the day, then please contact Dave Walton on 0116 279 9300.
Do not miss these exciting events!
