Flying Legends Air Show JULYThe biggest warbird display in Europe, staged by The
Fighter Collection in partnership with IWM Duxford,
will be on excellent form in 2018. A US Air Force
Heritage Flight will bring together a P-51 Mustang
and a modern-day F-35A Lightning II, the latter
making its Duxford debut. The Flying Bulls are providing a unique
collection of aircraft: P-38L Lightning, F4U-4 Corsair, B-25J Mitchell
and Alpha Jet. After its appearance last year was curtailed by a
broken canopy, Comanche Fighters’ P-51B Berlin Express is back
on the bill; another notable Mustang in the line-up is P-51D Trusty
Rusty from the Early Birds Foundation in the Netherlands, making
its British debut (see pages 50-53). Three Hispano Buchóns will
comprise the Aircraft Restoration Company’s example and two
from Air Leasing, two-seater ‘Red 11’ and single-seater ‘Yellow 7’,
the latter another airshow fi rst — it is possible that another from the
Air Leasing stable might be ready in time, for the biggest Buchón
gathering in the UK since the Battle of Britain fi lming 50 years
ago. Jan Friso Roozen’s Hurricane P3351 returns after a few years’
absence, and the Swiss Classic Formation brings three Beech 18s
this time to join its DC-3. More aircraft remained to be added at
press time. Remember, admission is by advance ticket only.
Prices: Adults £35, senior citizens £27.50, children (up to 15) and
disabled people £19 (all advance only), under-16s and carers
free; various other ticket options available
