Vintage Air Tour Fly-In
We’re excited that the Vintage Air Tour will join us during the longest day fly-in!
The de Havilland Moth Club’s 2023 Vintage Air Tour is in the process of being organised, with planned mid-week dates of Wednesday June 21st and Thursday 22nd June.
Inaugurated in 2003, initially to commemorate the Centenary of Flight, the Tour has been run most years since. The objective is to encourage vintage light aeroplanes to spread their wings and to live just a little more than is entailed by out-and-back flights to the established Fly-Ins.
The Tour is aimed at de Havillands, of course, but others may be considered.
So far, for 2023, there are 23 registered aircraft, mainly Tiger Moths, but with two Gipsy Moths, three Leopard Moths and four Hornet Moths, a Stampe, Travel Air and Chipmunk also joining in.
The Tour is centred at Enstone North side grass, by kind permission of Tom Gilbert.
On Wednesday 21st June the Tour travels from Enstone to visit Popham for morning coffee, arrival around 10.15, thence to Shobdon for a lunch stop at approximately 12 noon, departing Shobdon to Husbands Bosworth from 2pm and returning to Enstone late afternoon.
On the Thursday the cavalcade departs from Enstone to Fenland for the coffee stop and thence to Hinderclay Meadows in Suffolk for lunch. Finally, to Old Warden in Bedfordshire for afternoon tea, where public access is freely available. All with similar timings to the Wednesday.
Times, routes, and participants are subject to weather and to change without prior notice. It is hoped that all the participants will visit all, or most, of the points of the Tour but for obvious reasons there can be no guarantees!
For further details please email ron@ukmgparts.com.
